Study abroad in South Korea. Everywhere in Seoul, you will see the fantastic collision of old and new, with temples, fortresses, and palaces interspersed among skyscrapers and modern apartment blocks. Outside the big cities, South Korea is famous for its natural beauty, with hot springs, national parks, and beaches where you can find locals spending their weekends.

From learning about the local culture and history of the countries they visited, to volunteering at a school in Laos and spending New Year's Eve in Vietnam, UA student Reina talks about her experiences with the GEL program in Southeast Asia.

The University of Arizona and WeWork today announced an innovative partnership to expand the University of Arizona's Global Microcampus Network to include over 490 WeWork locations in 80 cities and 37 countries. Under this partnership, students enrolled in UArizona programs internationally have "All Access" to WeWork's flexible workspaces, allowing them to continue their U.S. degree from the comfort and safety of their home country. The new partnership with the global workspace leader will provide a flexible framework for more students looking for a path to a U.S. degree.

In a fall 2020 enrollment update from the College of Fine Arts, we learn that faculty and staff from several departments, including UA Global's Lara Pfaff, a program director with International Student Services, went the extra mile this summer in assisting an international student from Tijuana, Mexico, as she navigated the process of getting to Tucson for the start of classes last month. 

University of Arizona Global is pleased to announce an exciting new partnership with Uninest GK, a student housing company located in Tokyo, Japan, giving students access to UArizona undergraduate, graduate, and customized degree programs. Through this Global Student Accommodation arrangement, students residing in Uninest housing can pursue a University of Arizona degree without leaving the country. If you’re following news about trends in higher education, you may have read...
