STUDY ABROAD

Stonor/Drexel Halls Salve Regina encourages students to study abroad in preparation for working and living in an interdependent world. On average over 30% of our graduates take part in short- term, semester or year-long study abroad as part of their undergraduate education. Most students find that study abroad enhances their education and is personally transformative. In addition, employers and graduate schools often look for people who have skills and knowledge sharpened by study abroad, such as intercultural communication skills, increased language proficiency and awareness of global issues.

The Office of International Programs provides advising and assistance to Salve Regina students who wish to study abroad. In addition to administering short-term programs led by faculty, Salve Regina supports study abroad through affiliate programs providers and partner universities around the world.

This process is often referred to as a “no release”, “opt out”, or “suppression.” When a student makes this request, everyone within the institution must abide by a student’s request that no information be released about the student. It is also important to understand that a “no release” does not mean that a school official within the institution who has a demonstrated legitimate educational interest is precluded from using the information to perform that official’s job duties.
