What is a faculty-led program? Faculty-led programs are developed and led by GU faculty. The programs usually take place during the summer and can be competitive as space is limited. Operation of a faculty-led program is dependent on administrative approval and minimum enrollment. They may not operate on a yearly basis. Faculty-led programs for 2012 include:
Exchange Programs
Exchange programs are agreements between GU and foreign universities. Students direct enroll at the partner university for a semester or year and in exchange they send students to GU. Students pay GU tuition. Room and board are paid to the host university. Exchanges can be competitive as there are limited number of spaces available each year. Apply early.
