Education Abroad

It is not mandatory to study abroad, nor a requirement to complete the PC Prep Program. However, we would like to see you study abroad as it enhances your ability to know the world as a global citizen. There are also other opportunities to volunteer campus-wide, locally, or nationally that will enable you to have global hands-on experiences that will enhance the completion of your PC Prep Program.
