Study Abroad Opportunities

Every year hundreds of students at Fairleigh Dickinson study abroad and gain the experience of a lifetime. In the past students have traveled to places like our campus in England, Wroxton College, as well as Amsterdam, Prague, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, China, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Italy, London, Australia, Germany, Greece, Ireland, South Korea, South Africa, Spain, and Switzerland, to name a few.

Cost is often a concern for students. The good news is that your state, federal, and for some programs, institutional financial aid are retained while studying abroad through FDU. Make sure that you have filed your FAFSA. The FDU Study Abroad Office can also help you identify external grants and scholarships to help cover your costs.

FDU Wroxton College

Fairleigh Dickinson’s Study Abroad destination in the United Kingdom.

A semester at Wroxton College is carefully designed to provide an all-inclusive study abroad experience with a high-quality academic program. While abroad, students can blend highly organized cultural excursions with the ability for personal travel and exploration.

Centrally located in the rural heart of England, yet still only about an hour north of London, the 56-acre estate revolves around a remarkably beautiful and modernized 17th century manor house. The College itself is small, accepting only 50 students per semester, which allows it to continue to meet its founding vision of an intellectual community, cloistered in a safe, idyllic setting.

To enter the Wroxton program:

• Students must have a cumulative grade point ratio of 3.00 or better in 4.00 system (or equivalent), as indicated on an official college transcript.
• Applicants must be a second-semester sophomore, junior, senior or graduate.
• Dean of Students review and approval.

FDU Short-term Courses

Study Abroad with FDU Faculty

A popular way for students to study abroad is on a faculty-led trip. Every year hundreds of students travel for between one to three weeks on an academic trip led by FDU faculty members, gaining the experience of a lifetime.

These short-term, faculty-led study-abroad experiences are often linked to fall and spring semester courses, while others are stand-alone winter or summer session courses. In each case, trip itineraries are carefully arranged by the instructor in collaboration with the FDU Study Abroad Office. Costs vary from program to program depending upon the duration of the trip, the destination and prevailing exchange rates.

FDU Global Partners

Study Abroad with Select Partners

In addition to Wroxton and Vancouver, there are many other semester study-abroad opportunities. The Study Abroad Office has a full range of descriptive materials dealing with programs around the world with different curricula. Students, after they choose what program they want, must receive approval from their academic department.

Programs listed are just a small sampling of what is available. In each case, students pay the prevailing FDU tuition and fees plus the cost of transportation and room and board at the partner university. All financial aid remains the same!

External Programs

Fairleigh Dickinson University does partner with a third-party provider of study abroad programs. If you have a particular country in mind, chances are an FDU student has spent time studying abroad there. Costs vary depending upon the choice of program. As with anyone interested in studying abroad, whether it is with an FDU program or a host program, it is important to sit with an academic adviser to set aside the appropriate courses to take while abroad, as well as contact the Study Abroad Office for guidance and support.
