Fall semester abroad is exciting, but many students overlook a key detail: passport validity. U.S. passports must often be valid six months past your planned return date.
Check your expiration now—renewal backlogs can take weeks. Students should also make sure they have any required visas for their host country, proof of enrollment, and extra copies of all documents.
A small oversight can lead to denied boarding or even rejection at customs. Don’t let paperwork derail your semester in Paris, Tokyo, or Cape Town.
