Consult your academic counselor or adviser for different oversea programs offered by your school. Many schools offer federally funded study abroad programs for nursing. Grants and scholarships are also available to students who meet certain grade and attendance criteria.
Choose a study abroad program in nursing that meets your interests. Your academic counselor answers questions on the right type of nursing program for you. The difference of the program usually is specific to the location. A nursing program in France might be working alongside professionals in a research hospital setting, but in Nicaragua, study might focus on community medicine and emergency aid.
Submit your completed applications to your school's administrative office before the deadline. Also submit all financial aid paperwork, supporting documents and eligibility to study abroad from your school if you opt to go through your chosen program's main offices.
Choose your final program once you receive your acceptance letters. You can only use one program to study abroad so make an informed decision by reading all information sent to you and researching the doctors and teachers who you work with while overseas.
Contact your chosen study abroad program to make final arrangements regarding start dates and travel plans. All fees are to be paid up front. You are then ready to secure your seat with the airline for the dates determined by you and the program coordinator.
