Current Situation in the Middle East

The University of Minnesota and the Learning Abroad Center constantly monitor information relevant to the safety of students on study abroad opportunities. The University currently has no sponsored programs in Israel or Lebanon; however, there are several students in the region participating in independent academic activities. The University has been in contact with these students and continues to monitor the situation. All students report that they are safe.
