"The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes."

- Marcel Proust

A global education is all about perspective.  When you are able to view your familiar world through another’s lens you will have gained the insight and understanding that is the essence of a global education.  A study abroad experience gives you this perspective, and is a vital contribution to your business education.  By studying at a foreign institution, you take a moment to look at the world from a unique point of view.  The way businesses interact in England or Australia or China is distinct from the way businesses interact in the United States – and understanding those differences may just make all the difference in the world. 

Early Admission for Study Abroad Students

Students studying abroad during the second semester of the sophomore year have the opportunity to apply for early admission to the Mason School of Business.  If you gain early admission you are guaranteed a place in the class that will enter the Business Program the semester following your study abroad semester.
