Where Will Penn Take You?
Penn Abroad serves as the hub for global opportunities at the University of Pennsylvania.
Why go Abroad?
As you consider how to make the most of your time at Penn, we encourage you to take the leap and go abroad.
Living, studying, and adapting to a new environment builds independence, resilience, and cross-cultural communication skills—valuable assets in today’s global workforce. Immersive programs also offer hands-on learning, unique courses, and language improvement, enhancing your academic potential and GPA. While affordability or academic concerns may seem daunting, Penn Abroad advisors can help you explore programs, resources, and solutions to make a global experience possible.
