W&M named top public institution in study abroad participation
by Erin Zagursky | November 18, 2009

The College of William and Mary has a greater percentage of undergraduates who participate in study abroad programs than any other public institution offering doctoral degrees in the United States, according to a recent study by the Institute of International Education.

The IIE’s Open Doors 2009 Report on International Educational Exchange ranks William & Mary as 17th among the top 40 doctorate institutions, with 46.3 percent of the College’s undergraduates participating in study abroad programs. That percentage is up from last year’s report, which had 46.1 percent of William & Mary’s undergraduates participating in study abroad programs. The College also ranks above all other Virginia institutions - public and private – in the report.
