Summer Courses Abroad
May–July 2010
Spend four to six weeks of your summer experiencing life in a different country. The summer Courses Abroad offers a variety of courses, ranging from history to politics to languages. All of the courses are taught in English (or the language being studied) and offer ample opportunities for you to explore local history and culture. Classes usually carry three hours of college credit and are taught by University of Illinois faculty.
The program fee for each course is usually between $2,500 and $4,000, which includes accommodations, orientations, and excursions. Airfare and meals may also be included. Tuition and fees for three to six credit hours are not included in the program fee.
Deadline for Applications: February 11, 2010
Applications and a non-refundable $25 application fee may be completed online. Confirmations of course offerings and dates, based on minimum enrollments, will be made after the deadline.
Scholarships: The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences offers a limited number of LAS Course Abroad scholarships to LAS students only. Students may apply for other scholarships through the Study Abroad Office website or check with their college office.
