When to Study Abroad
As a rule,
study abroad is a program for students in their junior or senior year.
A minimum of 17 credits is required to qualify. There is no
blanket minimum GPA, but most programs require a 3.0, while some accept
a 2.7 Programs are available for the fall or spring
semester or for the entire academic year. We also have a long list
of approved summer programs.
Students specializing in programs with
highly sequential and prescriptive curricula such as pre-med or some
science majors should consult with their mentors and program advisors
about the best time to study abroad. Pre-med and science students can
and do study abroad. See the Study Abroad office for more
information about this topic.
