AFRICA

AFRICA: While there are very few formal programs in Africa, the prospects for studying abroad in Africa should be good. Most schools are English speaking, and many countries share a common origin in British Common Law. A tremendous diversity of experiences are available.

THE MIDDLE EAST: There are few formal programs available for the Middle Eastern countries. Only Hamline University's program in Jerusalem is running this year. However, there should be many universities for which ad hoc study could be arranged.
