Increasing Access To Study Abroad
CEA CAPA is committed to increasing equitable access to education abroad while providing students a framework to explore and challenge their identities, both through diverse global communities as well as the students we bring together.
Increasing Access Through Funding
We commit more than $2 million to our scholarship and grant programs each year, including a range of Opportunity scholarship that awards students up to $5,000 toward study abroad costs.
Increasing Access through Partnerships
Strategic partnerships within higher education help us reach a broader student population. For instance, we’ve developed a program that provides first-generation students with grants and awards to cover the cost of obtaining their first passport. We also connect with students through our partnership with Sigma Lambda Beta, a traditionally Hispanic fraternity.
Increasing Access through Custom & Faculty-led Programs
We partner with faculty to create short-term, faculty-led programs that resonate with a broad spectrum of students. Examples include programs for first-generation students to San José, Costa Rica and Rome, Italy; a program that explores Paris’ LGBTQIA+ culture; and programs designed specifically for STEM students.
Increasing Access through Peer Advising
Our Content Creators and Alumni Ambassador programs allow students to connect with their peers while they’re abroad and when they return to their home campuses. Both programs allow prospective students to reach out to a familiar face and ask questions about the realities of life abroad.
