Program Overview
You can participate in curricular summer/winter programs offered at APU’s partner universities. All credits acquired during the exchange period 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 participation. In addition to attending all classes, you must actively participate in class activities. Studying and living abroad is an invaluable experience. However, it 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.
