"Spending a year, semester, or even summer in a foreign country is a once in a lifetime experience. On study abroad, students can witness culture, history, politics and much more first hand. Students from almost every major at Wittenberg can and do study abroad. Some majors simply require earlier planning.

Many students think they don't have the grades, the money, or may feel slightly intimidated st the thought of living in a foreign country. However, study abroad oppurtunities are available to everyone.

Any student with a cumulative GPA of 2.5 and junior status through Wittenberg has the opportunity to study abroad. Cost is a concern, but the prices of different program can vary a great deal. Financial aid arrangements vary. If you're anxious about living in a foreign culture, there are programs and locations that make the transition easier."
