International Opportunities
Expanding Your World View
At Linfield University, students will be challenged to look beyond their hometown and country to understand world issues and appreciate the differences that make all cultures individual and unique. We encourage all of our students to study abroad at least once before they graduate. As part of a Linfield education, students have the opportunity to participate in exciting international study abroad programs as early as the sophomore year. One feature unique to Linfield is that the college will pay for your first round-trip airfare.
