Study Abroad
At Hastings, you can study abroad for a semester, the summer or an entire academic year.
While Hastings has many academic opportunities that appeal to a number of interests and professional goals, there’s no substitute for the experiences you get studying or serving others while immersed in a different culture.
Types of Study Abroad Opportunities
Direct Exchange Options
With a Direct Exchange, you may attend a partner institution for the same cost of tuition at Hastings College! Hastings College will work with you to make sure your financial aid and other requirements are in order.
Other Study Abroad Experiences
Direct Enrollment – We encourage you to develop your own interests and pursue them — including through Direct Enrollment. Direct Enrollment offers you the ability to leave Hastings College and come back after enrolling and completing a term at a school abroad. For more information, contact us using the information below.
Travel Courses – Hastings College faculty also offer travel courses, which are typically 7-14 days in length. Recent courses include traveling across Nebraska for a wildlife biology course, to France to study the business of sport, to Ireland for Irish history, to New York City for history and culture and to Yellowstone for environmental sociology.
How to Make it Happen
Meet with your advisor and/or the Academic Dean (see below), to develop a plan. You’ll also want to meet with the Registrar’s Office to make sure you’ll get credit for the classes you take.
Since processing times can vary, we encourage you to begin the process of applying for a passport as soon as possible to avoid any delays.
For information on studying abroad, financial support and planning, contact Dr. Kittie Grace, Associate Dean of Academic & Student Affairs, at kgrace@hastings.edu.
