Global Education

From the sun-washed European countryside to the lush foliage of South America, from the shores of the Pacific Ocean to the deserts of Africa . . . the vistas are astounding.

But our goal is to expand your worldview . . . not just the world viewed through a camera lens. Global Education at Gordon means placing your own perspective aside long enough to learn how people view the world on other sides of the tracks, the fence, the ocean.

All Gordon’s semester programs emphasize community engagement and serious commitment to living IN your host community—to accept hospitality but to bring something to the table.

The Global Education Office also provides a place of welcome for the growing number of international students in the Gordon community, welcoming the new perspectives they bring to our global understanding and to our communion with the body of Christ around the globe.

At Gordon, Global Education means engaging the world abroad, around the corner, and on our campus.

THINK LOCALLY, ACT GLOBALLY

Gordon students continue to receive their internal scholarship for one semester off campus. (Short-term seminars are additional cost.) In most cases, program costs (including tuition, room and board, and round-trip airfare) are the same as a semester on campus.

Semester Programs
All students seeking to study off-campus in semester or year-long programs must file online seat applications with the Global Education Office. GE semester-programs guarantee transfer of credit and, with a few exceptions, cost the same as a semester at Gordon. This cost normally includes round-trip airfare allowance, ground transportation, housing, meals, and all tuition costs.

Short-Term INternational Seminars
Students seeking to study in short-term INternational Seminars will find the seminar applications on the individual seminar's page. Short-term, INternational Seminar programs are an additional cost to the student and are not supported by scholarship aid.
