WHERE CAN I GO?
You can go anywhere in the world for your education abroad experience. During the past two years, Findlay students have studied in Australia, Mexico, Italy, Japan, Peru, Thailand and England.

WHICH PROGRAM SHOULD I CHOOSE?
You can choose any program that you would like. You can choose from business schools in England to language schools in Asia to art schools in Italy! You can choose from programs which run for a few weeks to a few months to a semester or for even a whole year. Programs can involve volunteering, internships and teaching. There are so many options available.

DO I HAVE TO SPEAK A FOREIGN LANGUAGE?
No. While knowing a foreign language is always helpful, most programs offer courses taught in English and guides that can help you get around your host country. If you are interested in learning a foreign language, many even offer a wide variety of intensive language courses.

CAN I GET MY CREDIT TRANSFERRED?
Yes, you can. If you attend an accredited program, you may receive transfer credits for general education and major requirements. There are procedures that you will need to follow at UF and while abroad to make sure you receive the appropriate credit.

WILL I STILL BE ABLE TO GRADUATE ON TIME?
Sure. It will take some careful planning, but there is no reason why your time abroad should delay your graduation.

CAN I AFFORD IT?
A semester overseas typically costs more than a semester at UF, but costs and financial aid availability vary significantly. Additionally, there are many scholarships available. The needs and qualifications of each student need to be determined on an individual basis. For details, you can visit with the Financial Aid Office as well as the Buford Intercultural Student Services Center.

WILL IT HELP ME GET A JOB?
Of course! With the world getting smaller, many employers consider overseas experience invaluable. It may be the one aspect of your resume that separates you from all the other people competing for a job.
