Education Abroad in Italy
Students are strongly encouraged to participate in a variety of UConn-sponsored Education Abroad programs (and also have the option of enrolling in non-sponsored programs). In either case, students should consult with the ILCS faculty to determine which courses will receive credits. Students who enroll in study abroad programs not sponsored by UConn do not necessarily receive UConn credits for their coursework. In addition, the following rules apply:
- A minimum of nine of the minor credits must consist of Italian courses taken in residence.
- Up to six credits may be met by ILCS 3293 Foreign Study, with the consent of the advisor.
- UConn’s Early College Experience courses may be counted towards the minor.
