Studying abroad is a life changing experience that exposes the individual to a myriad of world viewpoints while growing personally and professionally. Over 120 SUNY College at Oneonta students study abroad each year and experience intellectual growth and personal fulfillment.

SUNY College at Oneonta offers several, high quality exchange programs through the Office of International Education. Oneonta students also have access to the SUNY network that offers more than 400 study abroad venues around the world, of which SUNY College at Oneonta is a part. All programs carry academic standing and eligibility requirements and vary in duration, purpose, and cost. Faculty-led, short-term programs are also held throughout the year and are considerate of time and expense. Students are encouraged to first evaluate the reasons for studying abroad, the goals and objectives desired from the experience, and destinations that are culturally intriguing.

The Office of International Education (OIE) hosts an annual Study Abroad Fair, inviting SUNY campuses, and offers independent workshops throughout the year on the value of
studying abroad.

The Office of International Education encourages students to explore their world.  Stop by the OIE - we’ll help you start your journey.

Embrace the excitement and challenges of studying abroad.  The world is waiting for you!

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the things you did. So throw off the lines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain
