About Travel/Study
At Huntingdon College, we believe that travel and study abroad are fundamental components of a college education. Our students have the option to participate such programs during their junior or senior year. The related expense is partially to fully covered by tuition and fees. Through travel/study, Huntingdon students experience the world, deepening their personal understanding and setting them apart in their endeavors after graduation.
Students have traveled in organized groups or in individual experiences to six continents in recent years. Countries visited include Austria, China, England, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Northern Ireland, Israel, Italy, Kenya, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Scotland, and Spain.
Huntingdon also offers students exciting opportunities to live, travel, and study abroad by participating in exchange programs with universities in Northern Ireland.
