Study Abroad Study USA

Explore the world, expand your perspective and gain an appreciation of other cultures.

At La Roche University we believe that learning extends far beyond the classroom. Our Study Abroad + Study USA (SASU) program gives you the chance to explore the world, expand your perspective and deepen your appreciation for different cultures.

Whether you’re traveling internationally or exploring new places closer to home, our program helps you connect what you’re learning in class with real-world experiences.

We encourage all La Roche students, starting freshman year, to start learning about the program and planning their own international adventure! In all La Roche Experience (LRX) courses, you'll see our Chart Your Course: SASU Foundational video and receive more information about our Study Abroad + Study USA programs.
