Short-Term Study

In this section, you will find information on short-term study in the UK. Short-term study programs may last for a summer, semester or entire academic year and allow US students to study in the UK without the obligation of completing a full degree program. They allow students the flexibility to fit study in the UK around coursework in the US and may be a good option for students with limited financial resources, as they may be less expensive than completing a full degree in the UK. Short-term programs are available at all levels, from high school to the postdoctoral level, and can be an opportunity to see if you want to pursue longer-term study in the UK.

 

In this section, you will also find information about undergraduate-level programs, including university-coordinated programs and applying directly to UK universities as a non-degree or visiting student. Information on opportunities for postgraduate/postdoctoral study and research is also available.

 

Pages in other sections of this website contain information on short-term options such as high school exchange and internships.

 

Please note the Fulbright Commission offers Awards for study and research at the postgraduate and postdoctoral levels.
