Study Abroad Opportunities

Study Abroad Programs

The Office of Study Abroad supports Brandeis students who wish to participate in any of the 250 approved programs in some 70 countries around the world. Almost half of the junior class studies abroad during the academic year, while other students take advantage of international opportunities in the summer or during a university vacation. Students from all majors and minors can earn credit from an overseas experience.

Midyear Overseas Programs

Each year Brandeis admits a number of students to the midyear class, which commences in January and allows students to take a semester off before beginning their college studies. Since 2010, midyear students have had the chance to participate in a Brandeis-sponsored study abroad program for the fall semester. Previous sites include Beijing; London; and David, Panama. Learn more about the midyear overseas programs at Brandeis.

Financial Aid

Ninety-five percent of Brandeis financial aid is portable for study abroad. Additional scholarships are also available for study abroad programs. While abroad, students maintain their status as currently enrolled Brandeis undergraduates. For more information about financing a semester or year abroad, visit the financial information page.
