In general, DePaul University offers students two types of study abroad options:
-
Term-long programs where you will go abroad for one quarter or longer.
-
Short-term programs of typically 1-3 weeks that travel over the breaks (December, spring break and summer) and are led by DePaul faculty.
Below is a step-by-step guide to learn more and find the program that is the best fit for you.
Step 1: Learn How Study Abroad Works at DePaul
Study Abroad 101 sessions will guide you through the basics of study abroad at DePaul and discuss topics such as selecting, applying and financing your program. These quick, 30-minute sessions are offered every day during the quarter via
Zoom If you cannot attend any of these days/times, send your availability to abroad@depaul.edu, and we will set up an individual session with you and a staff member.

before acceptance to a study abroad program. Many scholarship applications are due prior to study abroad program deadlines.
Visit the scholarships page to learn more about scholarship opportunities through the Study Abroad office, academic departments, partner institutions, and non-affiliated scholarships.
