Getting Started

Regardless of where you are in the process, there are a number of resources on this site to help you determine which JCMU program is right for you and what steps are necessary to successfully participate.

• Check the eligibility page to ensure that you are eligible to participate in JCMU programs. If you have any questions or concerns about these requirements, please do not hesitate to contact the JCMU U.S. Office. 
• Our staff is happy to provide advising for students from any institution.
• Students from consortium, affiliate, and cooperative institutions should also plan to meet with the study abroad / JCMU representative for their school.
• Students who are interested in attending JCMU from a non-partner institution can learn more about the guest student status through Michigan State University (MSU) and academic credit.
