GW Study Abroad | Study Away |
The student is participating in a program that is part of the Office for Study Abroad’s approved programs list and is paying GW tuition. (Note: GW Short Term Abroad Programs are considered study abroad but they are GW courses and do not require credit transfer.) |
The student is independently enrolled in a program or institution that is not GW. This may be a semester or short-term program in the U.S. or in another country. In these cases, the program/tuition costs are paid to a program or institution that is not GW. |
