Washington and Lee University
Students are highly encouraged to take advantage of opportunities that will offer first-hand knowledge of the target culture(s) through formal study abroad, internships, or individual research.
Students may choose to study abroad during the twelve-week term through a number of approved programs independent of W&L. (Consult the Center for International Education for more information.). If students prefer to study on a W&L supervised program, various departments periodically offer study abroad opportunities in Latin America, including Costa Rica, Mexico, Ecuador and Brazil. W&L's Environmental Studies Program also has a federally funded (no extra costs for students) 6-month exchange program (summer and fall term) with the Federal University of Amazonas and the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro.
