Community Colleges and Study Abroad

October 8th, 2008 · No Comments

The Chronicle of Higher Education printed a story this morning based on an IIE report discussing barriers to Study Abroad at community colleges.  

The report indicated that only 3 percent of those who study abroad are enrolled at community colleges.

Take aways from the report are:

  • short-term study abroad programs (8 weeks or less) are much more prevalent then long-term programs
  • many programs are faculty led
  • budget cuts, student costs and a lack of institutional support are the biggest challenges

How can we help?
