Adventure awaits!

Creighton University offers a variety of study abroad opportunities all over the world.  The Global Programs Coordinators work closely with each student to select a program that meets his or her educational, professional, and personal needs.  All students planning to study abroad must obtain approval from the Global Engagement Office (GEO) by applying through the Jays Abroad portal on the study abroad website.  To allow as much time for research and exploration as possible, it is recommended that students begin planning their study abroad experience one year in advance of their term abroad.  Visit www.creighton.edu/studyabroad or contact studyabroadadvisor@creighton.edu for more information.

Study Abroad and International Program Options

Creighton-In Programs

Creighton partners directly with institutions around the world to host students for a semester or full academic year.  Students are integrated into the host culture and usually take courses alongside local students.  Most programs offer English-instructed coursework, with additional course options available in the local language.  Classes taken abroad are pre-approved, factor directly into a student's GPA, and worked into a student's unique educational plan. Creighton-In partnership locations include 20+ Creighton-In program locations and 200+ International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) locations worldwide!  For a current list of Creighton-In programs, visit the study abroad website.
