Being a student at Colorado State University has provided me with some pretty valuable resources concerning study abroad. The Office for International Studies provides a website solely focused on the Study Abroad Program.
This website is very helpful in it's abilities to accurately search for study abroad programs that fit your specific needs. If you click on the "Program Search" tab on the site, you will be taken to this search engine.
You can then choose which city, country, or region that interests you the most. You can also sort by choosing whether you want a semester, summer, or academic year long program. Another cool feature that this search engine provides is the ability to search by language. If you are wanting to go to a country which has a language different than that of english, you can find schools that will teach courses in english so you are not completely SOL.
Finding a program or school that has courses that will be able to transfer back to your specific university can be a difficult process. While the experience itself is worth more than the ability for your credits to transfer, having credits that will transfer back will assist you in pursing your degree. This search engine helps aid this process by allowing you to search programs based on your area of study! This is extremely helpful for students (like myself) who are on a strict academic schedule.
Even if you aren't a student at CSU I strongly urge you to look into this search engine. It has a multitude of programs in its database... you are sure to find something!
Adios for now!
