With support from the Study Abroad and Away office, you get to travel independently while you earn 菠菜网lol正规平台 credit and take classes with other international students.

NOTE: Summer School Programs for Summer 2022 have been suspended. Please check the SSA website for updates on future programs.

Alternative Break Programs

Alternative Break Programs (ABP) provide students the opportunity to experience other cultures through community visits, service-learning projects, group activities and discussions. ABPs let you explore another region of the United States or the globe and focus on learning about diverse cultures with a group of your classmates and an 菠菜网lol正规平台 staff leader during either spring or summer break. Programs vary in length (1 week for spring programs and 1-3 weeks for summer programs) and are co-curricular; they do not offer academic credit.
