Off-Campus Studies General Information


MAJOR ADVISERS

Major Adviser approval is required for all students who wish to study off-campus and transfer their credit toward their Whitman degree.  Tips on how to complete the Major Adviser portion of the Whitman Off-Campus Study Leave Application can be found under Major Adviser Approval for OCS Leave Application.


PRE-MAJOR ADVISERS

Please review Planning Tips, an information sheet about foreign language requirements and other course selection guidelines. These tips may offer some assistance as you discuss off-campus study plans with students pursuing off-campus study during their third year at Whitman.  Pre-major adviser approval may also be sought for summer study abroad if a student has not yet declared a major.

LETTERS OF REFERENCE

Faculty who have been asked to write off-campus study letters of reference may wish to refer to our Letters of Reference section for tips about what programs expect from the letters and where to submit them.


FACULTY-LED TRIPS ABROAD

Faculty who are accompanying students outside the United States should review the International Trip Approval Guidelines for an application and required forms.
