Rutgers University offers more than 65 study abroad programs in over 30 countries. Students can choose from semester and yearlong programs to summer and winter programs. Admission is open to students of all majors entering their sophomore year and above, as well as from other colleges and universities throughout the United States. Many of the programs offer students the opportunity for internships, service learning, and volunteering. While some programs require proficiency in a foreign language, the majority of the programs do not.
All credits earned while studying abroad through Rutgers are recognized as Rutgers University credits. However, to ensure that students meet graduation requirements, participants should carefully plan their academic programs in consultation with their departmental advisers and academic deans. While overseas, a program director or international office together with the Rutgers Study Abroad office will offer support and academic counseling to students.
For more information, students should contact the Office of Global Initiatives and Experiential Learning at Rutgers University-Newark or visit the Study Abroad website to schedule an appointment with a Study Abroad adviser.
