International studies immerse you in rich and fascinating cultures, as well as bring unique learning opportunities.

Would you like to study tropical biology near the Great Barrier Reef in Australia? Take an intensive language program in China? Conduct independent research in Nepal? Study environmental science in South Africa? Or take one-on-one tutorials with professors at Cambridge or Oxford?

A leader in international education, Pomona College offers one of the most comprehensive, well-organized study abroad programs in the nation. Students may choose from 40 programs in 26 countries, and every continent except Antarctica. All programs carry academic credit and no extra cost for tuition or room and board. In fact, students receive an extra stipend for travel. Those who receive financial aid may apply the full amount to any Pomona study abroad program. Nearly all majors—including the sciences and mathematics—enable students to incorporate study abroad and other international components into their programs.

Make lifelong friends and lasting memories while studying abroad.
