Usually, this is to take advantage of academic opportunities not available at Berkeley, or to fulfill breadth requirements. As an EAP participant, you are still considered a UC student, and all of your units transfer automatically. To learn whether courses taken abroad fulfill major requirements, you must consult a departmental major adviser before studying abroad because policies about accepting major course credit vary among academic departments. You should also contact an EAP Adviser who will advise you about achieving your educational goals while abroad. Housing arrangements vary by location.
Students live in apartments, boarding houses, university dormitories, or with families.
For specific information about a particular country or study center please refer to the individual country brochures. You should begin planning for your EAP experience as early as possible in your undergraduate career. This includes possible language preparation, saving elective and breadth requirement units, and talking to a major adviser about receiving credit in your major while abroad.
