Learning Abroad

The International Program Services (IPS) office provides learning abroad services to create so that every Lynn University student has the chance to study abroad during their degree, whether the program is a few weeks, a semester or an academic year. The IPS office is located on the 2nd floor of the Christine E. Lynn University Center

Lynn University fully recognizes that our students live in a globally interconnected world, both socially and economically, and that study abroad opportunities can be an important part of the overall collegiate learning experience. There is a wide variety of programs available to Lynn University students, including those led by Lynn University faculty. The IPS pre-approves all programs before they are made available to Lynn University students in terms of their academic rigor; for health, safety and security; and in terms of student life and support services.

Lynn-Approved Programs

Carefully selected by the International Programs and Services staff for their academic relevance, overall quality and service to students, Lynn-Approved Programs are available in all regions of the world, including Latin America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. These short-term, semester, and year-long programs offer coursework in all majors and are available in English. Programs heavily focused on language acquisition for those trying to acquire advanced language skills are also available. Programs are open to all Lynn University students, in good standing subject to individual program requirements.

Students participating in Lynn-Approved short-term programs are billed directly by Lynn University or by the study abroad provider administering the program. Program fees are an additional cost to the student and vary per program.

Students participating in Lynn-Approved semester and yearlong programs are billed directly by Lynn University and will pay applicable Lynn fees, including tuition, room, and board. Students receiving financial aid may be able to apply their aid towards the cost of the program. Students must make an appointment with their Financial Aid Counselor to review their financial aid package and discuss how it may be applied. A Lynn University student is permitted to apply a maximum of $6,000 institutional funding per semester towards their study abroad costs.

Lynn Faculty-Led Programs

In collaboration with the Lynn faculty, the IPS staff helps to design, develop, and implement short-term programs for students to enhance their learning through off-campus courses. Available during select academic blocks and the summer, these faculty-led programs take students beyond the classroom and provide them with firsthand experiences through travel, cultural immersion, professional interaction, fieldwork and career development. Students participating in Lynn Faculty-Led Programs are billed directly by Lynn University. Program fees are an additional cost to the student and vary per program.
