Course Equivalency Approval Requests

All Baruch students who study abroad must have the courses they wish to take abroad approved by the chair of the relevant Baruch department. The Course Equivalency Approval Request (CEAR) Form has been designed to facilitate the approval of courses at foreign institutions.

Additional Study Abroad Requirements

Once your Application to Study Abroad has been submitted, reviewed and approved, there are some additional steps to be done, depending on the type of program you have applied for.

Passports & Visas

If you do have a passport, make certain that it is valid until for at least six months after the end of your proposed study abroad program. Most semester study abroad students will need a student visa. Visa requirements vary from country to country, and regulations may change at any moment.
