Patti McGill Peterson Center for International and Intercultural Studies

Off-campus study is a pivotal part of approximately 50% of all St. Lawrence students' undergraduate experience.

St. Lawrence operates its own international programs in Austria, England, Kenya, France, Spain, and one domestic program in the Adirondacks. These well established and highly regarded programs are closely integrated into our campus curricula and faculty. Students participating in these programs will experience valuable cultural and academic opportunities in all destinations which will allow them to develop the appropriate skills to become global citizens.

In addition to these programs, St. Lawrence has partnered with a number of carefully selected programs in other parts of the world. Some involve direct enrollment in foreign universities, and others are run by American colleges or highly respected organizations for study abroad.

Students can also petition to apply for a non-partner program.

For St. Lawrence programs and those we affiliate with, the following applies:

  • St. Lawrence students pay regular comprehensive fees.
  • Financial aid is applied.
  • There are travel grants, research grants and additional financial aid available.
  • Each program has an academic prerequisite.
  • Students take an appropriate foreign language course while abroad.
  • Each program includes group excursions and field trips.
  • Student participants are in a variety of majors and from various campus groups.
  • Grades for all courses are recorded on the student's academic transcript.
