Can my loved one still graduate in 4 years if she/he studies abroad?
Yes. If a student chooses the program and courses carefully with an academic advisor, he/she should be able to study abroad and finish his/her curriculum in four years. The Education Abroad Center offers summer, quarter, semester and year-long programs. Many majors can study abroad for an entire year and still graduate on time. Course selection is done prior to departure so students can plan for academic progress. All units taken on UC programs abroad will count towards graduation, and possibly major/minor or general education requirements.
