 Connections to the World
Oglethorpe University embraces this trend toward
intercultural understanding with an innovative International
Study Abroad program. A natural companion to Oglethorpe's emphasis
on experiential education, Study Abroad allows students to
apply the critical thinking skills developed in the Core Curriculum
amidst other real-world cultural models.
Students majoring in a foreign language or international studies are
required to have a study abroad experience for at least one semester
during their 4 years at Oglethorpe.
Oglethorpe students can study at one of a number of
our International Partner Schools at no additional cost. A
semester or year abroad costs the same as studying on the Oglethorpe
campus, and scholarship and financial aid transfer to the overseas
institutions. Our Study Abroad Office provides access to a number of
traditional international study programs as well. Though these
opportunities are not guaranteed to cost less than a student's
comparable time at Oglethorpe, they remain popular and ensure that
Oglethorpe students can study anywhere in the world they desire.
