Links to course catalogs for all universities are available here> How we help you chose classes Our semester abroad and academic year abroad direct enrollment study abroad programs allow you to take classes applicable to your degree program so that you can continue your academic progress while studying abroad. As a GlobaLinks Learning Abroad participant, you will work with a personal coordinator to select classes prior to departure, ensure course pre-approval, and transfer credits upon your return. No aspect of your academic plan will be overlooked.
Credit Transfer Most of our university partners around the world offer the same or similar degree programs as universities in the U.S. or Canada. This makes it easier for students to take classes that will transfer back to their home university and count as credits towards graduation. The home university has full discretion regarding transfer credit. GlobaLinks Learning Abroad requires the home university to pre-approve the classes students wish to take while abroad. We can assist with this process and works with all U.S. and Canadian colleges and universities.
Some subjects may require prerequisites before enrollment is granted. Final enrollments are completed from an approved list of subjects either online or upon arrival at the host university. GlobaLinks Learning Abroad cannot guarantee the availability of individual classes or admittance to any subject. Most U.S. and Canadian institutions will not accept transfer credit unless students obtain the equivalent grade of C- or better in their subjects. In some cases, subjects may be evaluated and transferred as Pass/Fail. To find out how courses will be transferred, please ask the study abroad or academic advisor at your home university.
School of Record GlobaLinks Learning Abroad is proud to have The University of Minnesota, Twin Cities as the School of Record for all GlobaLinks Learning Abroad programs with a foreign issued transcript. This means that if you attend a university which requires a transcript from an accredited North American institution in order to transfer credit, you can obtain an official transcript from the University of Minnesota for your program abroad through this agreement (additional $350 fee will apply).
