International Programs

Tanya R. Saunders, Director

The Office of International Programs encourages students to enhance their undergraduate program with a summer or semester of international study. Our staff members can assist students in selecting study programs that fulfill their academic needs as well as their personal interests. With careful planning, students in any major can study abroad.

Ithaca College administers its own program in London and sponsors student exchanges with universities in Australia, the Czech Republic, Japan, Scotland, Singapore, and Spain. The Ithaca College London Center offers a variety of courses and a number of internships. The College continues to develop new opportunities for students to study abroad.

Through affiliate arrangements with the Center for Cross-Cultural Studies, the Institute for the International Education of Students, the Institute for American Universities, and the School for International Training, students may study various disciplines in many countries around the globe. With the permission of Ithaca College, students may also elect to study abroad with programs sponsored by other accredited American colleges or international institutions.

Courses taken through the Office of International Programs that are taught in a non-English language and intended primarily for native language speakers will be treated as transfer courses for grading and credit purposes.

Students planning to study abroad, whether through an affiliated or nonaffiliated program, must have the approval of the Office of International Programs. A minimum cumulative GPA of 2.50 is required for approval to study abroad.
