Other Programs And Direct Enrollment
Other University Programs
As a Pitt Student you are eligible to participate on another four-year
accredited University's Study Abroad program. We typically will not approve
Community/Junior College or Language School courses. You must obtain approval
from the Pitt-Greensburg Study Abroad Office to participate on another
University's program. Please see links below to search for these programs.
Direct Enrollment
Effective Fall '06 students may enroll directly in a foreign institution and
seek to transfer the credit they earn to the University of Pittsburgh. During
that period they are not enrolled at the University of Pittsburgh and are not
counted in any enrollment model. Upon their return, their grade reports from
the foreign institution are reviewed by their school to determine whether or
not transfer credit will be granted. As long as students have registered for
classes at the University within the last three terms, they remain active in
the student system and can register for classes again after their time abroad.
All financial matters are the students' responsibility, including the status of
their financial aid. It is also the students' responsibility to provide their
own health insurance.
