Resources for College of Arts and Sciences

Seattle University offers a diverse range of SU-Sponsored, SU-Exchange, and Faculty-Led programs around the world. This guide outlines recommended courses for consideration during international study. As students take an active role in their academic journey, we offer comprehensive resources for academic planning and encourage collaboration with their Academic Advisors to explore and select the most suitable options for their abroad experience. Explore the full list of programs!

Education Abroad & Academic Advising

An important supporter of the student experience abroad is the academic advisor. During the Exploration phase, students should discuss their desire to study abroad with their advisor to determine the best term for their experience, identify courses to complete abroad, and plan their remaining academic coursework to ensure timely degree completion. Additionally, students can review Seattle University's program requirements to identify which upper-level major courses they need to complete at the university.

When identifying courses to complete abroad, the EAO Historic Course Equivalency Search, can provide insight into courses that other students have previously taken. Although this list is not exhaustive, it can help students estimate the likelihood of similar courses being offered in the future.

Seattle University students typically go abroad Fall Semester/Fall Quarter, and depending on student's majors, undergraduate students in the College of Arts & Sciences go abroad during:

  • 2nd Year
  • 3rd Year
  • 4th Year
  • Summers

Students need to meet with their academic advisor to discuss their individualized academic degree plan to determine the best term to go abroad.

Suggested Undergraduate Courses To Take Abroad

Typically, students will do a combination of University Core, Arts & Science Requirement courses, Major, Minor, and/or General Electives. Long-term programs course load ranges from 3-5 courses, depending on the program. Planning early can allow students to save courses to allocate for the abroad experience while still being on track to completing degree requirements in a timely manner. 

Seattle University’s Core Curriculum was constructed with study abroad in mind. Module III of the Core is called “Engaging the World.” View the Guide to fulfilling UCOR requirements with Education Abroad Courses for more information on subjects that fall into the different UCOR Module III course umbrella.
