Global Center

Are you looking to go global without missing out on the school year? For many students, studying abroad in the summer term offers an ideal way to gain international experience without compromising their campus commitments, family obligations, or budget. It’s also a fantastic way to add something unique to your resume and get a jumpstart on global career connections.

As you think ahead to summer, here’s why summer study abroad might be the perfect fit for you:

• Stay on Track During the School Year
  If being on campus during the academic year is important—whether for coursework, campus activities, or maintaining continuity with friends—summer study abroad lets you experience life in a new country without altering your regular schedule.

• Flexibility for Family Obligations
  For those who may have family responsibilities, summer can be a more flexible time to study abroad. With shorter program lengths, it’s often easier to balance these commitments.

• Cost-Effective International Experience
  Summer study abroad programs can be a more affordable alternative, typically requiring less investment than a semester-long program. This can help you save on tuition and housing costs, making it easier to finance your adventure.

• Boost Your Resume with Additional Experience
  A summer abroad can set you apart when you’re ready to apply for jobs or internships. International experience is highly valued by employers, and a summer program shows initiative, adaptability, and cultural awareness.
