Visiting Student Program
Students from Douglas College can consider taking a study semester abroad as an international student and transferring those credits back to their diploma or degree at Douglas College.
As an international student, you will be able to try new courses and study environments while making new friends.
University of California, Berkeley Summer Session
Each summer, UC Berkeley, one of the world’s top universities opens its doors to international students to visit and take courses on its campus outside San Francisco.
Students can choose to stay on-campus or find private accommodations. For further information on the program, courses, fees and accommodations, visit the Berkeley Summer Sessions site and also see their presentation.
A representative from UC Berkeley usually visits Douglas College during the fall. For information on the visit and timelines for summer course registration visit the Berkeley Summer Sessions website or visit the Douglas College International office.
Students who go on an international visiting student program are eligible to apply for an International Studies Award. You can also attend a pre-departure session offered by Douglas College International.
Students must complete a Travel Abroad Information Form and sign a completed Emergency Contact Form and a Release of Liability Form. These forms must be dropped off to the attention of Karen Ng at the Douglas College International Office at least one month before you leave.
