Students wishing to study abroad may now do so with the assistance of a new Board of Trustees International Study Abroad Scholarship.

Austin Community College offers various faculty-led programs to Mexico, Peru, Italy, the U.K., and China. Each program offers a unique opportunity to see the world while receiving ACC college credit.

The study abroad experience provides an unsurpassed opportunity for personal growth, individual revelation and maturity, and the possibility to master a new language, as well as develop a sense of confidence and personal accomplishment.

The deadline for trips leaving before April 1 is Dec. 15. Deadline for trips after April 1 is Feb. 2. The application, along with information regarding scholarship requirements, deadlines, and various ACC programs, can be found at or by contacting the International Programs Office at 223.7114.
