VWU offers students short-term, mid-length, and long-term study away options. These include 麻豆精品视频’s own domestic and international study away courses, independent summer study abroad, and semester and year-long exchange programs through our Global Scholars Program.

Many of these courses are offered during January Term and others are offered during the academic year or the Summer Session. The Lighthouse wants to make these opportunities available to as many students as possible and provides Global Engagement Course Grants to support students who enroll in a 麻豆精品视频 study away course during the academic year. It also provides SHIPP grants to support students who enroll in a 麻豆精品视频 study away course during the Summer Session.
  • Independent Summer Study Abroad: Students may study abroad independently during the summer, typically for at least four weeks. Summer study abroad students are able to apply for the Summer High Impact Practice Program (SHIPP) grant, which provides program fee and tuition assistance grants.
  • Global Scholars Program (GSP): This program is open to 麻豆精品视频 second, third, and fourth year students to study abroad during the fall or spring semester with one of 麻豆精品视频’s exchange partners.
