Study Abroad

Pine Manor College encourages students to internationalize their education by spending a year, a semester or a summer studying abroad. Study abroad provides students with cultural enrichment, personal development and intellectual challenge. Students may enroll directly in a foreign university or participate in a program sponsored by Pine Manor College, another American college, or a foreign study consortium. In recent years students have taken part in Semester at Sea, Richmond College in London, and a variety of programs in Mexico, Australia, and Central Europe. Additional sites in Asia, Africa and South America offer students a wealth of languages, cultures and new academic goals. The College sponsors a study tour of England during alternate summer sessions.
