Welcome

Founded in the belief that an international and multicultural perspective is increasingly necessary for all university students, Virginia Commonwealth University encourages students from all majors and fields of interest to receive a part of their education in an international environment.

The benefits of studying abroad are many, allowing you to:

  • Experience life and learning in different cultures and develop a broader understanding of the world.
  • Increase your knowledge of and facility in a foreign language.
  • Understand differences in educational styles and systems.
  • Increase employment marketability upon graduation.

To accomplish these goals successfully, you are encouraged to study in another cultural setting within your degree program at VCU. The Education Abroad Office has been established to assist you in accomplishing these goals.
