Study Away

Study away is an opportunity made available to qualified Connecticut College students, subject to a thorough selection process. Every applicant must apply for permission to study away from campus by completing the Study Away Application forms and meeting all deadlines. The Faculty Study Away Committee reviews and approves applications, but approval by the committee does not guarantee final acceptance to the study away program. Review of each application is strictly confidential, and the decision arrived at by the Study Away Committee is final.

Connecticut College recognizes two types of study away programs: Study Away/Teach Away (SATA) programs and regular study away pro­grams. SATA programs are semester-long courses of study designed and led by Connecticut College faculty.

Connecticut College has worked diligently to establish special relationships and affiliations with institutions that have programs of outstanding quality throughout the world. The Office of Study Away evaluates these programs on a regular basis with respect to academic and student service quality. Under exceptional circumstances, Connecticut College will approve students to attend programs with which the College does not have an established relationship. More information about this process may be obtained by contacting the Office of Study Away. For the most current listing of study away programs and locations, please check the office website.
