Many students describe their study abroad experience as the most meaningful part of their education, impacting their personal growth and enhancing their global perspective.

Information on our 2009 summer programs will be added to the site later this fall. In the meantime, browse through our site and get a feel for study abroad at SPC.

SPC offers a variety of short-term study abroad programs. While abroad, students must be enrolled in at least one course that correlates with their program itinerary.

2008 PROGRAMS
The following study abroad trips are scheduled for this summer:

• The Cambridge University Summer Program
• Spanish Language Immersion in Cuenca, Ecuador
• Tropical Ecology in Belize
• Japanese Pottery for art students and opportunity to work with persons with developmental disabilities for education majors

NEED FINANCIAL AID HELP?
We are happy to announce that Wayne Kruger, assistant director of Financial Assistance Services, is available to answer any questions you may have about financial aid for this year’s Study Abroad program.

Because several of the cost items for each trip are optional or variable, your cost may differ from the examples shown on this Web site. For instance, one student found a round-trip airfare to Ecuador that was over $500 less than our estimates. So please explore all your options. We hope to include as many of you as possible on these trips!
