Travel abroad, eari By Cindy Pierce Travel abroad! See the world! Learn about different cultures! All while earning academic credit? It's possible, according to Chris Ghizas, Travel/Study Abroad adviser for USC's International Services. USC students can arrange study at foreign universities without much difficulty, she said. These programs aren't very expensive, Ghizas said. "Costs are approximately the same as out-of-state tuition. It varies with the program," Ghizas said. "There are limited scholarships and financial aid, but there are other possibilities." USC sponsors foreign study in England, France, Spain, Canada, Germany and China, but other programs can be arranged. The Travel and Study Abroad Office, located in the west wine of Russell House, houses a library where students can investigate study programs.

AFTER A STUDENT has chosen a program, Ghizas helps complete the application, get passports and visas and handle any problems or questions. The Study Abroad Office now has a "Travel and Study Guide" available to help students decide on a program. Students who go abroad usually do so at Ihe end of their sophomore years or the beginning of their junior year, since USC policy states that a student's last 30 credits must be completed at the Columbia campus, Ghizas said. "Mostly students who are interested in other cultures and lifestyles take advantage of this service," Ghizas said. "A lot of times, when you see how other people live you can have a better appreciation of how our country is." Many international business and government majors go abroad to learn other countries' policies firsthand, Ghizas said. And, of course, studying abroad is a good opportunity for language majors, she added. * I l G real with SILK I HO utstanding with SI I Be ourteous with cusl TT I H Open Mon.-Fri 7:3 I"1" I I ^ onvenient w/Drivc I B K nits kept in shape I H ? how your USC ID )f ; I 25% D! 1 | !
