Summer Study Abroad Program
Students can also enhance their learning experience greatly by enrolling in
summer
study abroad programs. These days, they no longer have to spend their
summer vacation simply in leisure instead they can venture abroad on a summer study
program for language study following their freshman or sophomore year. Although summer study abroad
programs are quite a different experience as compared to an academic year
abroad or semester study
program they are still as enlightening and rewarding. A successful
summer abroad program should help the international student determine if
they want to pursue a year or semester abroad program.
Before taking study abroad courses, it's a good idea to check whether you can get credits from the various programs which are handled on a case by case basis by the
universities deans or
heads of the relevant department to the courses taken abroad. In fact for these sort of summer
abroad sessions, many universities give the students
a chance to apply for scholarships and financial aid although these grants tends to be quite limited at times. As
always, students wishing to go for any study abroad program should
apply ahead in case they are looking for scholarship assistance.
Summer study abroad
programs need not necessarily be for formal study. They can simply
be for foreign language study or independent research programs in other
countries or internships work or volunteer abroad. The beneficial prospect of summer study abroad
programs has led to the rise of many fellowship opportunities for student’s concerned about getting involved in such non study options abroad. In fact there are several study abroad programs
just for high school students.
Some of the fellowship opportunities available for students
that focus on summer study abroad can apply to Freeman Asia, International Summer Award program,
Fulbright, NSEP, Sanders, Richard U. Light Fellowship etc which are either need based or merit based. These
are among the best study abroad programs for high school and college students.
Visa facilities as well as housing accommodations are somewhat easier for
students on these programs. However, it's recommended that you consult with your
schools study abroad advisor to get
more information on available programs.
