School for International Training Programs
The College Semester Abroad program of the School for
International Training (SIT) provides a unique opportunity to experience
other cultures through language study, a homestay, and cross-cultural
orientation. Each participant, in consultation with the academic study
director on site, plans and completes an independent study project. SIT
currently offers the following semester programs which include an
introduction to the geography, history, politics, economics,
anthropology, religions, and arts of the country. Most also include
intensive language instruction, as indicated. To undertake any of the
following programs, the student must have a grade point average of 3.0
or higher at the end of the term preceding the start of the program and
have satisfied the program prerequisites, if any.
Each program awards four Cornell course credits. The particular nature
of the credit varies with each program. The program selection changes
annually, so for complete and up-to-date details and program
descriptions, consult the SIT web page
