Go. Learn. Transform. Act.
The Office of Intercultural Learning (IL) works with students to help them
integrate intercultural experience into their liberal arts education, and to
reflect on their position and responsibilities in the world. To that end, the office
takes a holistic liberal arts-based approach to off-campus study by preparing
and supporting students to live and learn in a new cultural setting and
then helping students continue the learning process as they return to the home campus.
IL provides institutional leadership in infusing the educational program
on campus with intercultural learning opportunities. IL also provides advising
and services to international students studying at Southwestern.

STUDYING ABROAD NEXT SPRING?
Apply for your U.S. passport now!
Due to changes in U.S. regulations, passport applications are now taking up to four months to process. If you're planning on studying abroad this spring, we strongly encourage you to start your application immediately and to pay an additional fee for expedited processing. Please note that expedited service can still take up to three months.
Since a valid passport is required to apply for a visa, it is especially important that students planning to attend programs in the following countries apply for their passports as soon as possible: Spain, Italy, Australia, Austria,
Chile, China, Ecuador, France, India, Japan, the United Kingdom (academic year students), and New Zealand.
