STUDY ABROAD WAIVER

 

The Honors College emphasizes the transformative value of studying abroad and offers a waiver of 3 upper-level Honors course credits upon successful completion of a Study Abroad Waiver in conjunction with a study abroad program. This allows students to earn a waiver for up to 3 hours of Honors non-seminar credit for a summer session, fall, or spring semester abroad. Those studying abroad for two separate semesters (full summer, fall, or spring) may earn a waiver for up to 6 hours of Honors non-seminar credit. Honors seminars are excluded from this waiver. The Study Abroad Waiver incorporates both an online journal and an academic reflective essay, connecting student experiences abroad to a prescribed book read before departure. This reflective component aims to enrich the experiential learning process. Note that students are not permitted to complete a Study Abroad Waiver for Honors credit during their final semester before graduation. For further details, please contact Kelsey Kimzey.
