Studying Abroad
If you have been, or are about to start taking language and culture courses with us, and would like to experience your new language in an immersion situation, you might want to consider the options below. In some cases, students receive university credits upon completion of these programs, and those credits can be transferred as Liberal Studies or Professionally-Related courses to TMU. For more details, please check TMU's policy on Transfer Credits.
