COLUMBIA-APPROVED STUDY ABROAD PROGRAMS

Finding An Approved Program
In addition to the Columbia-sponsored study abroad programs, the Columbia Undergraduate Committee on Study Abroad has approved many other study programs located in countries around the world. Students may search the list of approved programs by region or language.

Non-Approved Programs
If the country in which a student wishes to study is on the approved list, but the particular study abroad program or university is not on the list for that country, the program will probably not be approved by Columbia. However, if students have compelling academic reasons for preferring a particular program over one of the approved programs, they may present their rationales in their study abroad petitions to their GS academic advisors. Petitions are reviewed by the GS Study Abroad advisor in consultation with the Dean of Students and the Office of Global Programs.
