Assuring the health and safety for MICA students participating in off-campus programming is central to the mission of the Global Education Office. The toolkit below is designed to offer students and families resources to prepare for these experiences as well as navigate challenges as they arise.
Building a plan is key
Physical Health Resources
The location of a program and the unique needs of each student will define a plan of action.
Taking Care of Yourself inside and out
Mental Health Resources
Assessing stressors and keeping lines of communication open are key. The Global Education Office encourages students to work with us to assure student needs and plans of action can be developed in advance.
Making Good Choices and Keeping Secure
Staying Safe
Assuring the personal safety of students is often a combination of research, planning, and good decision making. Note: The MICA Student Code of Conduct remains in effect for all MICA students on off-campus programming. This includes the requirement of age 21+ for all alcohol consumption regardless of the laws within the host country.
