Our Programs

Union College considers its commitment to International Programs to be a central part of its identity. In addition to broadening their perspective and deepening their knowledge, study abroad often energizes and challenges students so they are motivated to a higher level of commitment to the enterprise of learning.

It is extremely important that students planning on participating in any international program are thoroughly familiar with the general forms and policies, as well as the specific forms and policies for the international program being undertaken.

Terms Abroad Programs

The most extensive and popular of the Union College arrangements for formal study are the Terms Abroad Programs. Currently Terms Abroad are offered for study on nearly every continent. Programs marked (PGE) are cooperative programs with Hobart & William Smith Colleges through the Partnership for Global Education. Application forms can be downloaded at the bottom of the page. They are also available in the International Programs Office, HU211.
