When you have time, we encourage you to read more about CGE's Oxford Honors program, a seventeen-year tradition that offers students unparalleled one-on-one attention from faculty at the most prestigious university in the world. Please note this highly competitive program now offers a spring semester option as well!
CONNECT: while making new friends and contacts as you connect your studies with your life and work back home! Be sure to join us next month
on Monday, August 27 for our Welcome Week event where you'll be able to meet other students who've recently studied abroad and hear from successful professionals about the connection between study abroad and an international career.

Have a great weekend, enjoy the rest of your summer, and we'll see you soon!
Sincerely,
