¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷

All degree-seeking students must fulfill the mandatory study abroad requirement.

You need to participate in a ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷-sanctioned study abroad program at some point during your undergraduate career at ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷.

You may fulfill this mandatory requirement through one of the many study-abroad programs offered through ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷'s Office of Global Education—including any of our three-week Intensive Courses Abroad or any .

If you will require accommodations in order to complete the ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷ study abroad requirement, please speak directly with the Office of Accessibility Services (OAS) as early as possible in your planning process. For information and assistance, please email access@goucher.edu. Advisors in the Office of Global Education will also be happy to connect you with the appropriate resources and support through OAS.

Information about requesting a substitution for the study abroad requirement for students with documented disabilities can be found in the Study Abroad Substitution Request Policy (PDF).

Students who are citizens and primary residents of a country other than the United States and who have completed their high school diploma or certificate outside the U.S. are already fulfilling the study abroad requirement by studying at ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷ College. The Global Education Director will inform the Registrar when an international student enrolls in ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷so that the Study Abroad requirement is recorded as completed in the student’s record.

All transfer students who have completed a study abroad program in an accredited higher education institution or completed an internship related to international content or an international internship prior to enrolling at ¶¶êŽÉñÆ÷ will have satisfied the study abroad requirement upon enrollment. Students should send transcript of study abroad experience to studyabroad@goucher.edu who upon receipt and approval will inform the Registrar.

If you have questions about our study-abroad programs please contact the Office of Global Education at studyabroad@goucher.edu.
