Intersession & Summer Study Abroad Programs

Students Overlook the Sunset in Mexico
© 2004, Stacy Ochoa

Every year the University of San Diego sponsors Intersession and summer programs abroad in several different countries. Directed by faculty members and coordinated in the Study Abroad Office, these programs vary in length and course offerings. Students may fulfill a variety of Core Curriculum requirements or in some cases, earn credit toward their major or minor. Financial aid for these programs is available for USD students in the form of loans through the Financial Aid Office.
