Summer Semester Programs
Summer Semester programs offer students the opportunity to study abroad for 4–8 weeks while earning TCU residency credit. Designed to provide an experience similar to a traditional semester abroad, students take courses at a partner university or study abroad center during the week, with evenings and weekends available to explore their host city and surrounding areas. Unlike TCU faculty-led programs, Summer Semester programs typically do not have a TCU faculty member on-site.

TCU Global is anticipating high interest in the summer programs. We may not be able to accommodate every student’s first-choice program. As you think about your summer abroad, have at least two options in mind. You will be able to select alternate program options as part of the application. Please make sure you select programs that are appropriate to your degree plan and interests.
