Obtaining a Passport
U.S. and non-U.S. citizens need a passport both to enter other countries (including Canada and Mexico) and return to the United States. Your passport needs to be valid until at least 6 months after your study abroad program ends*. You should apply for a passport upon deciding that you will study abroad, if your passport will be invalid during that time. Apply early as it can take six to eight weeks for standard processing and most passport acceptance facilities require appointments.
*Note: some countries, such as Russia, require that your passport is valid for 18 months following the completion of your program
Once you have your passport, be sure to sign it and fill in the emergency information page.
