About Program

Enroll directly and study abroad at the University of Reading, one of England's most prestigious universities. Study abroad students can elect to spend a semester or full academic year here, located just 40 miles west of London. You'll be studying alongside local students and other international students form over 40 different countries. Cultural diversity is definitely a highlight of this study abroad program.

All students are required to take an interdisciplinary seminar entitled "The World in Britain." This seminar gives you the context for many things that you will see and do while in England through a survey of the principal social, political, and cultural developments during the periods 1485-1750 (fall semester) and 1750 to the present (spring semester).

Randolph College Abroad: The World in Britain

Wonderful program. Met a lot of great people. Education is different in England since they are so much more advanced in their studies than we are, but the professors woudl always schedule meetings with you, if needed. So much to do not only in Reading, but in the neighboring cities as well. One of the best experiences I have ever had!

Wonderful Program

I continue to use what I learned from this incredible year abroad--over thirty years later.

All of the classes and seminars were valuable, and the experience taught me to be adventurous.

I have recommended this program, frequently.

More than just a study abroad program....

Randolph College Abroad: The World in Britain was definitely the highlight of my college career and arguably the highlight of the first quarter of my life! Who I am today was directly shaped by this program, the exceptional staff who became my family, the women I lived with, and the unique educational and travel opportunities that were available to me because of this experience. Today I am more adventurous, curious, independent, savvy, thoughtful, and aware thanks to The World in Britain!

Best year of my life

My program was academically challenging with wonderful opportunities to get to know the English people and lifestyles. Reading is a real, "non-tourist" city close to London and Oxford, with lovely villages and Windsor castle nearby.
