With this summer’s host institutions located in Scotland, Denmark, New Zealand and more, there’s bound to be somewhere you’ll enjoy journeying to!

Exchange Semester Abroad:
Feeling especially adventurous? Then you and Humber’s semester abroad program would likely be a good fit. Lasting around the time of a usual semester, this international opportunity leaves you lots of time to explore your surroundings, wherever you may voyage to.
During the program’s 2018-2019 season, why not spend time in the UK, Japan, or Finland? With Humber’s exchange semesters, there’s the added bonus of no international fees to worry about on your end. Just pay your tuition as you usually would through Humber, and that’s it! For other expenses that may crop up, like airfare and insurance, peruse the next paragraph to learn more about Humber’s financial aid option for students studying abroad.

Study Abroad/International Mobility Bursary:
A common barrier for those looking to go global is finances. Sometimes savings, OSAP, and/or family contributions just don’t cut it. However, if you’re a Humber student, fear not! The college offers a bursary exclusively for students who are completing an academic experience outside of Canada. You can receive up to $2500! The amount you receive (if your application is approved) depends on multiple factors, such as: how much financial aid you’ve demonstrated you need, how long your trip is, and how many students apply for the bursary.
APPLICATION DEADLINE: At least 30 days prior to departure.
