Emergency Contact Information

In the event of an emergency, your first points of contact abroad are the on-site Resident Director of your study program and/or the International Office at your host institution, and the closest US Consulate or Embassy. If you cannot make contact with in-country support or additional assistance is required, please contact the IP&E office directly:

During business hours:

After business hours:

To be used in emergency situations in which your personal health, safety or security (or that of another UW student) is at risk.

Note: The after hours emergency number connects to the UW Police Department which receives calls 24 hours per day, seven days a week. The UW Police will ask you to provide basic information about your situation, how/when you can be contacted, and relay these details to IPE staff. IPE staff will respond to your call as quickly as possible.
