Expand Your Horizons with Global Education
Westmont is unique in that we offer many faculty-led semester-long programs on a rotating schedule along with programs at over 30 affiliate institutions. We encourage students to schedule a study abroad advising appointment in their first semester on campus to see how they can best prepare for an off-campus experience and fulfill GE, major, minor or elective credit.

Students, our office staff is available to advise you on how an off-campus program can fit into your academic plan. You can use your financial aid (merit- and need-based awards) while enrolled in a semester-long Westmont program or a semester-long affiliate program. If you are considering one of our approved affiliate programs, you must first apply to "request a spot" through our office. Deadline to submit an application to request a spot for Fall 2025 is November 30, 2024.
