Explore the World with UCLA Faculty
Travel Study programs combine the excitement of study abroad with the academic rigor of classes taught by UCLA faculty. Study on the go for 3-5 weeks on customized programs designed in collaboration with faculty and onsite partners. Most major logistical components are pre-arranged aside from airfare (such as housing and program activities). These programs offer direct UCLA credit that can satisfy degree and/or general education requirements. Travel Study is open to everyone, but you must be at least 18 years old with a high school diploma by the start of the program. Current students must be in good academic standing.
We recommend students apply during the Priority Enrollment window (11/18-12/1) for best availability. Program space is first-come, first-served and will open for Summer 2025 on November 18th. Program fees will be available by application launch.
