Marygrove College works with a number of study abroad organizations to provide students with a variety of study abroad program options. Students can choose to spend an academic year or a semester abroad, depending on their academic programs and when and where they prefer to go. Students who wish to study abroad for at least a semester are not only eligible for additional scholarships, they are capable of taking courses that fulfill major, minor or general education requirements. Long-term overseas study used to be primarily for foreign language majors - but not anymore! Students pursuing majors as diverse as computer science, dance, business, and biology can also enjoy a semester abroad. For example, in recent years Marygrove students have:

• Spent a semester studying dance performance in London, England.
• Perfected Spanish language skills in Salamanca, Spain.
• Earned credit toward a major in computer information systems from the University of Wollongong in Australia.
• Learned to speak Japanese in Hikone, Japan.
• Studied French language and culture in Aix-en-Provence, France.
• Traveled throughout Eastern Europe while studying international business for a year in Dijon, France.
