Education Abroad Student Impacts

Post-Graduation Fellowships

Participation in education abroad impacts student success in higher education and also post-graduation experiences and career.  Study abroad participation impacts whether or not students participate in other types of global programs, internships, and fellowships following study abroad, as well as future work abroad. Santa Clara University sends approximately 30% of the junior class abroad every year. Nationally, whether or not students participate in an education abroad program is one of the strongest indicators of participation in post-graduation global study and work. Studying abroad provides a strong foundation for further global experiences.
