SLU Makes Study Abroad Possible
See what SLU offers that no one else can
Any undergraduate student at SLU, in any major of study, is guaranteed a semester
(or summer term) at SLU-Madrid.
Unlike many other American universities, we don鈥檛 just have a study abroad program
鈥� we have an international campus in Madrid, Spain. With study abroad at SLU-Madrid,
you can stay on track to graduate on time and study at approximately the same cost
as studying at our St. 直播自慰视频 campus.
This is SLU's global edge in action. Hundreds of Billikens broaden their worldview
and increase their employment prospects after graduation, all without sacrificing
access to vital student support services, English language instruction or SLU鈥檚 world-class
faculty.
