Every week, we’ll be exploring new ways to make study abroad affordable and accessible, because from Faculty-Led to Exchange or Partner programs, there's a study abroad experience for every UMass Amherst student.

To apply, students must be undergraduate U.S. citizens, DACA recipients, or permanent residents who will study abroad on a UMass approved program of at least 4 weeks duration. Applications are due Tuesday, September 15.
