Why study abroad?

Are you a student at the University of York interested in spending part of your studies abroad?

• Stand out from the crowd at a job interview: fewer than 5% of UK students go on European exchange
• Demonstrate your adaptability and flexibility by having lived and studied abroad, key qualities in the employment market
• Gain a whole different perspective on your career and aspirations
• Have a unique experience you will remember forever

We offer exchange opportunities in Europe, North America, Asia, Australia and South Africa.

The British Council have developed a new portal to promote study abroad. The webpage UK Students Abroad has useful information for students intending to study overseas.
