Expand your education beyond the classroom and beyond borders by studying and interning in the United States and abroad.
“The staff here at New College are amazing and they are here to help you go wherever you may want to. Getting to study abroad in Japan was a once in a lifetime experience for me. It led me to try things I never had before and allowed me to create some amazing friendships that will stay with me forever. It truly was an enlightening experience and I can’t wait to see where I’ll go next.”

As an institution that values intellectual curiosity and fearless learning, New College of Florida encourages its students to expand their education beyond the classroom and beyond borders by studying and interning away, in the United States and abroad. Students have access to a wide variety of programs, from exchanging at other institutions within the United States, to studying around the world on faculty-led programs, exchange programs, and programs offered by select third-party providers.
The Off-Campus Study/Study Abroad Office acts as the primary resource on campus for students seeking this invaluable experience. The office supports the academic program and facilitates successful off-campus experiences by advising and assisting students who participate in study away programs through the entire process, from initial interest to reintegration on campus.
