Re-Entry Assistance

This can be the most difficult time of the study abroad process and the least prepared for time. Take a look at Craig Storti’s book, “The Art of Coming Home,” for some assistance in this process.

Minnesota Re-Entry Conference

The Minnesota Re-Entry Conference happens in the fall each year and is usually hosted by a Twin Cities university. The cost is minimal and the experience is phenomenal. The conference comprises of a one day workshop that provides recent study abroad returnees with the resources to use their international experiences towards their personal and professional development. The conference is a great way to take your study abroad experience to the next level. Date, time and location of the conference will be announced by the Education Abroad Office closer to the date of the conference.

“It was great to talk with other students who were feeling the same way I am about being home.”
“I was able to network with people I may be able to get a job with in the future.”
“It was well worth my time!”
“I wish more SCSU study abroad students had taken the time to go to the conference.”
