The Summer Abroad programs are open to UC Berkeley students, students from other colleges and universities, international students, and adults with interest in studying abroad. International students are eligible to participate in any program as long as you can obtain the necessary visa for your program country. High school students are not eligible to apply.
To be eligible:
- You must be at least 18 years of age at the start of the program,
- You must have completed at least 2 semesters at a higher education institution by the start of the program (transfer students are eligible),
- May not be on academic/term probation or under censure for student misconduct at any point from application review to the end of your program.
Please note, there may be additional requirements or prerequisites for the specific program you select; please check the location-specific page for details. You may only apply to one Global Internships or Summer Abroad program per summer.
Applications are reviewed by Berkeley Study Abroad to ensure compliance with University policies and individual program requirements. Berkeley Study Abroad reserves the right to void the admission of any student who is discovered not to meet the above requirements after being admitted.
