When you support Study Abroad, students can plan and integrate an international experience into their undergraduate studies.
Research has shown that students who study abroad have higher retention and graduation rates, higher academic performance and satisfaction, and improved communication skills. Many students return with a greater sense of self-efficacy, independence and personal growth. Employers value the skills students gain during a study abroad experience including interpersonal skills, curiosity, adaptability, confidence, self-awareness, problem solving and tolerance for ambiguity.
Your gift today will enable students to incorporate a study abroad experience in their college career, helping them overcome the biggest barrier to an international experience: funding!
Through your gift this Vandal Giving Day,
Education Abroad aims to create a new study abroad scholarship fund open to all U of I majors.
Thank you for supporting U of I students so they can take part in these transformational experiences abroad!

During Vandal Giving Day, we invite you to support two special funds that foster stronger ties with our hard-working international student body and global neighbors.
International Programs' Cruise the World
For this annual event, our students transform the International Ballroom and Vandal Ballroom into a vibrant global village, showcasing food, performances, and activities from about 20 countries. Attendees enjoy a culinary and cultural adventure with diverse performances, making Cruise the World a standout, immersive global experience for our local community.
