Outbound students
The role of the study abroad tutor is to give continual academic advice from enquiry stage right through to when you are overseas.
They help you identify relevant courses at the overseas universities, they're contactable while you're abroad, and they ensure you always meet your Sheffield degree requirements.
You must discuss your options with them before you submit an application.
