US Embassies Abroad
Students should register with the State Department when they arrive in the host country. U.S. Embassies Abroad are excellent resources for study abroad students. They can provide a list of doctors or lawyers in the local area, tax forms, and information on travel advisories. Furthermore, the embassy is a safe haven in the case of a large scale emergency and may help U.S. students evacuate should that become necessary.
International Students should check-in with the embassy of their home country to determine what services are available in the host country.
