Studying abroad offers a rich opportunity to learn first-hand about another culture. Credit may be earned toward a Creighton degree through hundreds of programs of study abroad as approved by the Office of International Programs, Dean's Office, Financial Aid Office, and the student's adviser. The flexibility of the student's program of study at Creighton will determine which courses will transfer back and where they will fit into the student's degree program. Students may study for a summer, semester, or year. Creighton students have studied at colleges and universities in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Belize, Denmark, the Dominican Republic, England, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Lithuania, Mexico, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, and Wales.
Options are available in every region of the world.
Federal financial aid applies to ALL study abroad programs as long as the sending institution is accredited. Creighton scholarships also apply to all affiliated programs including DeMontfort University in Leicester, England, Sophia University in Tokyo, Japan, and the University of Limerick, in Limerick, Ireland. Students who are interested in this type of experience should ideally begin planning their study abroad program one year in advance. To be eligible, you must have a minimum Q.P.A. of 2.5. Normally, students study abroad in the second semester of their sophomore year, or during their junior year.
