A non-refundable $50 application fee must accompany each program application and be made payable to Vanderbilt University.  Check or money order only.  No cash or credit cards.

This fee replaces any program provider application fees. DO NOT PAY THE APPLICATION FEE TO THE PROVIDER. Vanderbilt will pay that fee on your behalf.

Participants are usually juniors, but students may study abroad anytime after their freshman year. Because a study abroad experience requires a strong academic foundation, applicants must have an overall cumulative grade point average of at least 2.7, and many programs require a 3.0. Other pre-requisites and requirements are listed on the program page of the specific provider's website. Students must also be in good academic, financial, and disciplinary standing.

 

Note: GEO reserves the right to revoke acceptance of any student who is placed on probation or whose GPA falls below the minimum requirement for the program prior to the start of the program or during study abroad experience,

Programs with instruction in a language other than English require at least four semesters of college-level study or the equivalent in the appropriate language (for Vanderbilt in Germany, three semesters of college-level German with strong faculty support may meet the requirement). Only the "Vanderbilt In" programs (Spain, Germany, and France) are available to non-Vanderbilt students, if space is available.

All application materials are available in the Global Education Office located in Suite 115 of the new Student Life Center. Completed applications should be brought to GEO or mailed to:
