An optional academic enhancement to your travel experience.
We’ve partnered with Idioma Education & Consulting to bring student travelers the opportunity to earn undergraduate-level credits as an optional enhancement to your travel experience. Coursework documents the journey, reflects on the experience and culture, and connects to important world issues. Three (3) units of undergraduate-level, elective, academic credit — accepted as electives toward a degree (not applicable to a major).
