Studying abroad is something a student never forgets, a life-changing experience shared by tens of thousands of American students annually. Concordia University, therefore, encourages students to enrich their education through affordable overseas study programs that add a vibrant cross-cultural component to the traditional undergraduate experience. Concordia students can step out of the textbook and immerse themselves in the music of Mozart, the culture of Spain, the splendor of Italy, or the grandeur and vitality of London, while earning academic credit from Concordia.
Varied opportunities exist, allowing students to spend a semester or a summer in a Concordia University sponsored program.
Students receive academic credit for all courses taken overseas (12-16 credit hours per semester). With careful planning, students can study abroad and still graduate on time since at least six hours of core requirements can usually be fulfilled through an overseas program. The study abroad experience often takes place during the junior or senior year, but undergraduates are encouraged to begin planning for study abroad while they are freshmen or sophomores. Financial aid can be applied to these programs.
