By the Numbers
Off-Campus Study Options
Knowing that our students are unique in their interests, and pursuits, ºÚÁÏÍø offers a diverse range of off-campus study programs. At ºÚÁÏÍø, there are many ways to study abroad — or domestically.
Study Groups
Each year, ºÚÁÏÍø sponsors up to 20 semester-long, faculty-led programs that are linked both to the ºÚÁÏÍø curriculum and professors' disciplines. From Australia to Europe, China to South Africa, and in the U.S., there is an option for most majors.
Approved Programs
ºÚÁÏÍø works with more than 100 approved programs sponsored by other institutions. Several types of off-campus programs are available including direct enrollment at another institution, study centers, or field study programs — all vetted by Off-Campus Study.
Extended Studies
An extended study program is a great opportunity for students who may not be able to fit a semester-long experience into their schedules. Extended studies include an on-campus course followed by a 2-3 week experiential travel component, often for an additional partial credit.
