Study Abroad

One of the unusual opportunities afforded by the D-Plan is the unique manner in which students may combine off-campus study with on-campus instruction. Sixty percent of all Dartmouth students participate in at least one of the approximately 48 different off-campus options. These opportunities are considered vital extensions of the regular curriculum, offering invaluable insights into other cultures and new perspectives on life in the U.S. The programs, for which students earn full academic credit, are led by members of the Dartmouth faculty.

• The Language Study Abroad (LSA) programs allow for total immersion in a foreign culture with students spending 20-24 hours weekly in class and living with a host family.
• The Foreign Study Programs (FSP) are designed to expand the Dartmouth curriculum into new areas of significant intellectual discovery and cultural understanding through supervised study and residence abroad. Where applicable, students will already have achieved language proficiency prior to pursuing the FSP option.

In addition to Dartmouth's programs, the College has exchange relationships with numerous schools both in the United States and abroad.

• Examples of US Exchanges: Morehouse, Spelman, Stanford, Twelve Colleges.
• Examples of Abroad Exchanges: McGill, Oxford, Keio University, University of Tel Aviv.
