Overseas Short-Term Summer / Winter Programs

Pursue Your Field of Specialization

Program Overview

・You can participate in curricular summer/winter programs offered at APU’s partner universities.
・In principle, you will be required to pay program fees.
・All credits acquired during the program will be reviewed by each college and the Division of Academic Affairs. If approved, these credits will be counted towards the student’s graduation at APU.
・Because many summer/winter programs center on intensive courses in English, you must possess a high level of English proficiency prior to participating in the program.
・If you participate in a program in-person, in addition to attending all of the host university’s classes, you must actively participate in class activities. Living and studying and abroad are invaluable experiences. However, life abroad can also be difficult and stressful. In principle, you are responsible for dealing with any problems you might experience abroad on your own. We expect you to have a keen awareness of your surroundings and the ability to act responsibly to avoid any dangerous situations.
