Expert Post-Departure Guidance for Your Study Abroad Success

Our comprehensive post-departure assistance ensures you don't face the challenges of moving to a new country alone. We know it can feel overwhelming once you actually get there! That's why our support doesn't end when you board the plane. From your first day on campus to figuring out local customs (yes, even things like grocery shopping can be surprisingly different!), we're here to help you settle in smoothly.

Think of us as your friendly guide who helps you navigate everything from understanding your professors' expectations to finding the best coffee spots near campus. Because let's be honest – the faster you feel at home, the sooner you can focus on what really matters: making the most of your amazing study abroad adventure.

Why Post-Departure Assistance is Essential for International Students

Our post-departure support helps you settle into your new culture, academic environment, and daily routines without the usual bumps and confusion, taking the stress out of those "wait, how do I do this here?" moments with step-by-step guidance whenever needed. We keep you feeling confident and supported so you can actually enjoy your time abroad (instead of just surviving it!) while giving you instant access to everything important – from emergency contacts to finding a good doctor or figuring out local transportation.

Study Smart's Unique Post-Departure Assistance Advantages

Study Smart has built an incredible support network that includes alumni mentors who've been exactly where you are, local partnerships that get you student discounts and priority service, and a multi-lingual team that truly gets what international students go through. Our tech platform keeps track of how you're doing and offers personalized tips, while regular wellness check-ins make sure you're thriving (not just surviving).

We work directly with your university to support your academics, have local reps in all the major study destinations who know the ins and outs of each city, and provide orientation resources tailored to wherever you're headed. Plus, we keep your family updated on how you're doing and have legal experts on standby for any visa questions that pop up – because let's face it, immigration paperwork can be confusing even when everything's going smoothly.
