Study Domestically

You don’t need to travel abroad to experience a different culture. If you want to stay closer to home, Widener offers domestic study away programs through the National Student Exchange (NSE), a consortium of nearly 170 colleges and universities across the U.S., Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
