The 做厙勛圖 has been selected by the Institute of International Education (IIE) to receive an IIE American Passport Project<\/a>\u00a0grant that will enable up to 25 University students to obtain their first U.S. passport and open the pathway to study abroad. In its fourth year, IIE awarded 51 institutions in the IIENetwork membership for this opportunity, the largest cohort to date.<\/p>\n

\"ProudOperating under the IIE Center for Access and Fairness<\/a>, the American Passport Project is committed \u00a0to expanding access \u00a0to international education opportunities by removing financial barrier, thereby increasing the cultural competence of students studying abroad. The program prioritizes students early in their higher education experience to allow them ample time to go through the passport application and study abroad planning process with advising and support from the awarded institutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether with IIE, we are not only facilitating the acquisition of passports but are opening doors to global perspectives that are invaluable in today\u2019s interconnected world,\u201d says Tynelle Stewart,\u00a0Assistant Vice Provost, Global Education & Executive Director of the Center for Education Abroad at the University of Rochester. \u201cThis initiative represents a critical step towards increasing the accessibility and inclusivity of international education.\u201d<\/p>\n

To date, the initiative has assisted 176 institutions across 41 states since 2021. In this year\u2019s cohort, 41% of the institutions serve racially and ethnically diverse populations, including HBCUs, HSIs, AANAPISIs, and MSIs, as well as community colleges. These institutions prioritize demographics such as first-generation college students, racial\/ethnic groups, students with demonstrated financial need, and those who have never traveled abroad.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Center for Education Abroad<\/a>\u00a0(CEA) at the University of Rochester is committed to building access and equity in education abroad opportunities. Through partnerships with campus and community organizations, the CEA is organizing informational sessions, peer mentorship programs, and a Passport Fair. These initiatives aim to streamline the passport application process and encourage students to seize the opportunity for international experiences.<\/p>\n
