According to recent data, more than 50% of students who study
abroad choose short-term programs (8 weeks or less). Ironically,
faculty-led and other short-term study abroad programs are
depending on larger enrollments to keep costs low, and it
is becoming more difficult for these programs to obtain a
sufficient number of students to stay afloat. It is not uncommon
for faculty-led study abroad programs that don't acquire enough
students to be shut down. This causes much heartache and grief
for everyone involved. If this sounds familiar, stop worrying
and list your study abroad program for free on AbroadScout.com.
