Dear Student,
Many University of Arizona
study abroad programs are open to
non-UA students. The programs listed below offer UA credit, which means that
the
courses you complete abroad will be documeted on an official UA transcript.
Each year, hundreds of students
from across the country earn University of Arizona credit by studying abroad.
The UA
Office of Study
Abroad
and Student Exchange offers students from colleges and universities
around the United States a full range of
advising
and support services. These services focus on such issues as program
selection, academic planning, registration, credit, financial aid, and on-site
support.
If you are a non-UA student and
would like to take part in one of our programs, you will need to complete
both our online
application and the UA application
for non-degree admission. This will
enable you to receive UA credit for transfer back to your home institution.
