This summer, 74 participants from 6 countries joined us on the Forty Acres for the 2026 Global Summer Institute (GSI)! 🤘 🌎
Over four weeks, they experienced life as Longhorns — learning from The University of Texas at Austin and Texas Global English Language Center faculty by day and discovering Austin and Texas after class.
GSI gave participants a firsthand look at studying in the U.S. while bringing their coursework to life outside of the classroom.
