If you are planning to study abroad, you are expected to see a RLL advisor both before you leave and when you return. However if an unexpected course-related issue arises while you're abroad, our advisors will do their best to answer questions through e-mail. Keep in mind that we may not offer advising during the spring and summer half-terms, as most faculty are on leave at that time.

It is imperative that you keep your syllabi, transcripts and any course materials available (such as quizzes, assignments and papers). The more details you have in support of your classes, the more accurate your advisor can be when assigning credit.

If you are on a non-U-M study abroad program make sure the sponsoring university sends your transcript to U-M Undergraduate Admissions.

If you are on an OIP U-M program, your transcript will be sent for you to OIP after the end of the academic term.

If you have questions while you are abroad, please send an e-mail to rll.undergrad@umich.edu:

• Your name
  
• Your student ID number (the 8-digit number on your M-Card)
  
• College or School (such as LS&A, Residential College or Engineering)
  
• Uniqname
  
• An e-mail address to which we can send responses
  
• The name and sponsoring university of your study abroad program
  
• The city and country you are currently in
  
• Your current degree program, including concentration and minor
  
• The name of the RLL advisor you met with before going abroad
  
• Your questions. Be specific! For example, if your question is about how classes will count toward your degree program, be certain to include class titles, descriptions and syllabi if available.
