If you could create your own study abroad program, where would you travel to, what would you study, and what activities would be included? This is your chance to let the UIC Study Abroad Office (SAO) know!
In partnership with the Honors College, the SAO invites students from the Honors College to submit an essay or video describing their idea for a new study abroad program. Students may submit either independently or in a team of up to 3 students.
After the submission deadline, students, faculty, and staff within the Honors College will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite program. The winning submission will have the chance to be developed into a UIC study abroad program for a future academic year and the winning student(s) will be eligible to receive a $1,000 scholarship to study on the program if it is developed.
This contest is open to any current student within the Honors College!
Students may work on a submission independently, or in teams with other Honors College students. Teams can only have a maximum of three students.
In order to benefit from the scholarship the winning submission can earn, students should not be graduating prior to August 2023. Students who will graduate before August 2023 may still participate in the contest, but they forfeit the scholarship if they will be graduating before the program runs
