Review of Draft ACC International Travel Handbook

The purpose of the document is to inform students generally about various aspects of international travel they will experience as they participate in one of the many ACC study abroad programs. The document will be used by the IP Office during advising sessions as well as pre-departure orientations for each program. Students will also receive copies of the document so they can use it as a guide during their personal preparations for their travel. Students will also be encouraged to share the document with their parents and others in their lives to increase the level of understanding of all involved in the process.
All proposed changes/additions/deletions will be made by IP Staff and during next IPAC meeting a final draft will be presented for approval to use during this years pre-departure orientations.
