This guide is designed to provide concrete advice for study abroad professionals who are working with LGBTQI+ college and university students. The guide has been divided into sections in order to contextualize the topic and expose what is already known. We begin with a review of the research and a history of LGBTQI+ students in the study abroad context. The remaining sections provide detailed practical advice for supporting students during the research, application, preparation, time abroad, and re-entry phases of the study abroad process.
We use a stage-based approach in order to broaden the base of support for LGBTQI+ students beyond the recruitment phase, providing background information, advice, and resources in this guide. We hope this will help international educators and others to effectively support LGBTQI+ students from their initial interest in study abroad through their successful return.

The goal of this manual is to provide a road map for professionals who work with Hispanic college and university students in the United States (U.S.) planning to study abroad. The manual begins with a terminology guide and a brief explanation of the continued increase in the U.S. Hispanic population over the past decade. This trend sheds light on the growing number of Hispanic students pursuing higher education, and how this can positively impact education abroad, and equally important, how the increase will impact the way in which we approach the advising process. The remaining sections provide detailed advice for supporting the students during the research, application, preparation, on-site and re-entry phase of the study abroad process. To facilitate reader interaction with the guide, each section begins with an introduction and defined objectives. These objectives provide anticipated knowledge and skill acquisition by the reader for that section. At the conclusion of each section, questions are provided for reflection and tips or next steps to assist the reader in considering how to better advise the student based on the information presented in the guide.
This manual acknowledges the differences between the terms Hispanic and Latino(a); however, for the purposes of clarity and uniformity, the authors will use the term Hispanic throughout the manual to refer to a group of Americans who share a common language and/or cultural origins, but who have diverse backgrounds, histories, socio-economic and political experiences (Brown et al., 2003). For more information on the differences between the terms Hispanic and Latino(a), please see the terminology section.
