CMC Nashville was kind enough to host two staff members from the Study Abroad Office and two faculty from the Communications department to their campus this past February. Here is what we learned while visiting!

MYTH 🚫 Only music majors or students who sing/play an instrument can study at CMC.
REALITY ✅ CMC offers four different tracks of courses for students. Students studying Communications, Media Production, Business, Graphic Design, Marketing, HR, Digital Humanities, Social Media, etc., can all benefit from a semester at CMC!

MYTH 🚫 You have to have a relevant major to study at CMC.
REALITY ✅ Since CMC is a pre-professional program, you will be exposed to all facets of running a tour within the exciting music industry of Nashville. Want to work in worship ministry at a church after graduation? Try the Worship Creative Arts track at CMC!

MYTH 🚫 Studying at CMC won’t leave you any closer to a job after graduation anyways.
REALITY ✅ CMC alumni have worked with Luke Bryan, TobyMac, Kelly Clarkson, Beyoncé, Amy Grant, Lauren Diagle, John Mayer, Blake Shelton, and more, due to connections and networking made while at CMC.

MYTH 🚫 It’s too late to apply for a fall 2024 semester in Nashville.
REALITY ✅ Application deadlines for Fall 2024 are due on March 31st! There’s definitely tons of time left; just make a meeting with the Study Abroad Office using our link in our bio!

Introducing the newest members of our Spring 2024 Global Ambassador team!!
Sidney, Alia, Taylor, David, and Clark are all available and excited to talk to about how you, too, can go abroad! Catch them in our office, at the study abroad fair next week, or at a BC table. Head to the link in our bio to set up a meeting today! ✈️

This past fall and this January, we saw Bethel students on every continent! But in this small group of third-party students ALONE, we saw European (Germany, Italy), Australian, North American (Oregon, Nashville, TN), Middle Eastern (Jerusalem) and South American (Costa Rica, Chile) programs visited and explored… For a total of 10+ diverse program locations!! 🥳👏🏼

Whether it’s study away or study abroad, we are thrilled to celebrate and welcome home another cohort of third-party off-campus scholars!

New Zealand, New Zealand, New Zealand!!

The photos just keep rolling in! Here’s a snapshot of the Science and Technology group in New Zealand, along with an awesome tidbit of their time so far:

““The NZ group had the opportunity to meet Jami (Johnson) Shepherd and hear her story today. Jami is a 2011 Bethel graduate who majored in physics. She received her PhD in Physics at Auckland University and is now a researcher at the university.” 🇳🇿
