University of Chicago Study Away Program
Our study away program is an exchange with the University of Chicago. Students will spend the fall term at the University of Chicago and live in a university residence hall in a single room.
Further information, including application procedures, more about the University of Chicago exchange, and the exact deadline date, is available from the Fellowships Advising and Study Abroad Office at www.fasa.caltech.edu. More information about the University of Chicago can be found at www.uchicago.edu.
The fall orientation takes place the week prior to the start of the fall quarter. Since the University of Chicago is on a quarter system, their fall term correponds closely to Caltech fall term dates.
Please see the Financial Aid section for details on applying for and eligibility for financial aid related to study away. Students who receive financial aid should list supplemental charges and travel in their aid application.
