Global Connections
Did you know that as a UNM student you are entitled to study abroad as part of your academic career? Think it might be out of your reach? Well, it’s not! Every year, about 700 UNM students study abroad for varying lengths of time and in many different countries across the globe! AND many of them use their financial aid to do it! With over 200 programs, GEO is devoted to helping YOU find your best-fit program.
GEO has walk-in hours every Monday through Friday from 1pm to 3pm, Mesa Vista Hall 2120, where you can just come by and speak with an advisor about your plans! Don’t have time for that?
