We encourage all of our students to seek out opportunities to study abroad.

Why Study Abroad?

Mark Twain said, "travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness."

Santiago, Spain
Great Britain Direct Exchange (various sites), United Kingdom
Leicester, United Kingdom

The KU Office of Study Abroad has detailed information on how and when to apply.
