Summer Programs give students the opportunity to study in a foreign country for a short period, often focusing on intensive language study or one aspect of a country or culture. For example, students can experience the Korean language and culture, work with and study the Australian Indigenous population, or travel to Russia to learn about the history of Communism. Students who wish to improve their language skills or learn about a special academic subject in another country will benefit from Summer Programs. This is also a good option for students with a very rigid major or paradigm.
START PLANNING FOR SUMMER 2023! We recommend you apply between November – January 15, 2023
Our deadline is January 16th, 2023, but some programs may have earlier deadlines.
COVID-19 Notice: Program availability is subject to change for Summer 2023 due to entry restrictions, travel advisories, and program cancellations.
Travel and living abroad at this time poses new and different challenges. Maryville College (MC) recommends that only students who are fully prepared to remain aware of the changing situation in their host environment, and who agree to take responsibility to ensure that they are acting in accordance with the rules, regulations, and recommendations of their host communities, participate in programs at this time.
Please reach out to studyabroad@maryvillecollege.edu to discuss your goals and available options. You may also wish to consider our remote / virtual options.
