Twenty Westminster College students are studying in Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Puerto Rico, Scotland, Spain, Washington, D.C., and Pittsburgh during the spring semester.

"Nothing enhances a liberal arts education more than an international study experience," said Linda Volpe, director of off-campus study. "These students return to campus as self-confident, independent thinkers with a zest to learn more even more about the world we live in."

As a part of their educational program, Westminster College students can spend as little as a month or as much as a year living and studying in an international or domestic program. Students who study off-campus are able to earn not only credits towards graduation, but also credit towards their major or minor, or towards fulfilling part of the Liberal Studies requirements.
