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. Greatly expand your reach without committing more time or energy. Our directory opens your study abroad program to college students everywhere!

AbroadScout.com allows faculty leaders and program coordinators to announce their study abroad programs via a cutting-edge, online study abroad programs directory.
