Undergraduate business students at SLU have a wide array of options to choose from when considering a study abroad destination, each different from the other, as noted below.

Some of our study abroad partner universities teach in English while others are in their native language. Some are business schools while others are liberal arts schools. Some allow SLU enrollment and SLU tuition (with some financial aid applicable). Credits may transfer to SLU for a 鈥淐鈥� grade or higher. Some programs are a year while others are for a semester or shorter length.

Exchange Program

Our exchange programs are partnerships with world-renowned international business schools around the globe. Explore where you can study abroad below, but do not contact the schools directly as there is a formal application process through the Chaifetz School.

Students must have at least a 2.5 GPA to be approved for study abroad. Some destinations may require a higher GPA, so be sure to check.

The best time to study abroad is during the sophomore year or the first semester of the junior year (unless you are a student pursuing a major in economics or international business who has the option to complete the degree at the Madrid campus, remaining overseas in your senior year).
Start planning with your academic advisor as a freshman, so you know which courses to take at SLU and which to take overseas, based on residency and graduation requirements.
It is advisable to save some of the Arts and Sciences core and elective courses for the overseas experience.

There is no right or wrong way to approach study abroad 鈥� as long as you end up filling out all the paperwork required by the Richard A. Chaifetz School of Business, SLU and the destination university.

It is best to research the destinations first and select one or two of interest. If you want to transfer credit from these schools toward your degree at SLU, meet with an advisor and obtain and review a list of courses offered by your destination university.
