My Guide

Building your international credentials takes time and The BIG Guide Online is designed to help you from your first years in college until the time you graduate with a master’s degree. The My Guide feature allow you to customize The BIG Guide and helps you prioritize what parts are essential for you.

My Learning Path

My Learning Path is the starting point. Choose one or more goals (example, Volunteering Abroad, Studying Abroad), and My Learning Path will give you a list of essential readings of Quick Guides, Sections, Resource Lists and Quizzes. Track your progress by marking each reading with the My Choice and Completed check-marked columns. Keep returning to My Learning Path each time you sign into The BIG Guide Online.
