Can Gemstone students study abroad?
Yes! Gemstone students are encouraged to study abroad as long as they adhere to a few required guidelines. Study abroad must take place second semester sophomore year, or either semester junior year, and must be limited to one semester (year-long programs are not permitted). The semester before going abroad, the student will work with their teammates and mentor to create a contract outlining what he or she will accomplish for the team while abroad. Students will also be responsible for staying up to date on and contributing to the team’s progress. Students are also more than welcome to study abroad as many times as they’d like during the winter and summer terms.
