- Mainstreamed Programs in English
Mainstreamed programs offer the widest range of courses through their university’s English or Literature department and attract the largest number of majors. These programs also offer the best opportunity for cultural immersion.
Programs:

- Programs for Americans taught in English or Other Languages
We offer a number of programs that provide a limited selection of area studies courses that are taught exclusively for Americans. Generally one language class is required for programs that operate in a country where English is not the native language.
Some of the programs offer classes only in the host country’s language. Coursework taken on the programs would fulfill general education, elective, and possibly major or minor requirements.
Programs:
II. Other IU Programs
Additional programs are coordinated by IU departments, schools or campuses.
In all cases information about the programs (e.g. program details, credit awarded, financial aid, eligibility, deadlines, costs, application instructions, etc.) must be sought from the sponsoring unit.
See http://www.indiana.edu/~overseas/programs/biglist.shtml.
III. Affiliated Study Abroad Programs
IU does not offer programs in every location and language, so students may choose to search from
among the list of affiliated programs
and AESOP programs that are administered by other institutions.
As a general rule, the mainstreamed programs are most likely to include courses that fulfill major requirements. Offerings in the programs designed exclusively for Americans are limited and students should review the courses that are available and then consult Overseas Study for guidance.
IV. Other Non-IU Options
If students still do not find something that suits their needs,
they should consult the non-IU program instructions to get information on locating a program and procedures to follow.
