The IU Office of Overseas Study is responsible for facilitating study abroad opportunities for students on all eight Indiana University campuses. Nearly two thirds of the students participate in programs organized by IU units. Indiana University has a long history of offering programs overseas and is a nationally recognized leader in the field, ranked eleventh among research institutions in having the most students earning academic credit abroad. The office provides guidance to help students integrate study abroad into their academic plans and graduate on time.

The office issues comprehensive statistical information annually in the Office of Overseas Study Media Guide.

For additional information, see the Indiana University International Fact Book produced by the Office of the Vice President for International Affairs.
