The College of Letters and Science cooperates with the Office of International Studies and Programs in sponsoring more than fifty study abroad and exchange programs on six continents.
Programs are open to juniors and seniors and summer programs are open to sophomores as well.
While many programs include instruction in the language of the host country, some twenty programs are available which do not require knowledge of a foreign language. Students should be in good academic standing to apply. Interested students should begin planning during the freshman year with the aim of taking required courses as early as possible. Both credits and grades will be posted on the UW-Madison transcript. Students may select a semester or academic year program in Santiago, one of Latin America's most dynamic cities.
