Thank you for deciding to apply to an Syracuse University Abroad program! We are so excited for you to join us - whether you've chosen to apply to attend a center-based program, one of our world partner programs, a summer program, or a short-term program. If you have any questions about the application process, we're glad to help any way we can. Contact our office at (315) 443-3471 or 1-800-235-3472, or shoot us an email at suabroad@syr.edu.
To be considered for admission to our programs, you should have at the time of application a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of at least 2.5 on a 4.0 scale. World Partner programs and some select additional programs require a 3.0 GPA. Meeting or exceeding the minimum cumulative GPA requirement, however, does not guarantee admission to our programs.
The SU Abroad admissions committee will make admissions decisions based on a full review of your application materials, including the academic recommendation, the personal statement, and any disciplinary records. We have rolling admission, so as soon as you submit all required materials and your application is reviewed, you'll receive a decision from our office. Once admitted to SU Abroad, you must remain a student in good standing (academic and judicial) to participate in our programs. Our full admission policy is available online.
