Courses Abroad

Courses taken while participating in approved summer, semester or academic year education abroad programs through the Glavin Office of International Education (Glavin Office) will be evaluated through a process outlined by the education abroad advisors. Please check the Glavin Office website for more information on the course evaluation process. Unlike off-campus courses that must be evaluated to ensure no overlap with Babson courses, approved education abroad courses taken at a host institution/program may be similar or equivalent to active Babson courses. Core Babson courses, denoted by a full Babson course code (e.g., ACC1000), must be completed at Babson College. 

Students participating in summer, semester or academic year education abroad programs (with the exception of Babson-sponsored programs like short-term, faculty-led) must earn a Babson grade equivalent of C or higher in order to earn academic credit. Grades earned on summer, semester and academic year education abroad programs do not factor into a student’s cumulative Babson GPA. Grades earned on Babson-sponsored programs (short-term, faculty-led programs, etc.) do factor into a student’s cumulative Babson GPA.
