Summer & Winter Abroad
Summer Programs are open to all BC students and external students enrolled in other accredited institutions of higher education.
- Programs count toward BC graduation requirements (maximum of two summer programs per student) and can fulfill major/minor and core requirements.
- Grades appear on transcripts and are factored into students' GPA as regular BC courses.
- External Programs: Students interested in any non-BC summer program will not work with the Office of International Programs but should instead apply directly to the desired program. Students must contact their respective deans to gain BC course credit for any external programs.
