Kalamazoo College Ranks 10th in Nation for Study Abroad Participation!

Kalamazoo College has again been recognized as a leader in study abroad programs for U.S. college students. According to the Institute of International Education (IIE), Kalamazoo ranks #10 among U.S. colleges that offer baccalaureate degrees based solely on the percentage of its graduates that studied abroad during the 2010-11 academic year. Read more.

IIE reports that 87.9 percent (261 out of 297) of Kalamazoo graduates in 2011 had studied abroad during their K experience. Last year’s IIE report ranked Kalamazoo #12.      

With over 50 years of experience, Kalamazoo College through the Center for International Programs (CIP) currently sends students to 41 programs in 21 countries on 6 continents. Over the past four years, the K-College graduate participation rate in our study abroad programs is 80% to 85%.*

We offer study abroad programs of varying lengths, academic emphasis, and locations. Our goal is to provide qualified students with access to international programs which provide academically challenging coursework in an educational system whose values and methods reflect those of the local culture.

Our staff and peer advisors educate students to make an informed decision about study abroad programs and how they may help students reach educational and professional goals. We look forward to guiding you through the advising, application, orientation and pre-departure process.

Are you ready to grow in confidence, self-reliance, and maturity? Then prepare to
challenge your assumptions about yourself and other cultures in a rigorous
experiential education environment!

We do more in four years so that our students can do more in a lifetime!
