While living in the historic, university city of Oxford, England, qualified students will enroll for 16 credit hours in Spring/Fall semester. Short-courses, Summer I and Summer II hours are also offered in core and major disciplines.
Accommodations:
Students will live in one of two remodeled Victorian houses in fashionable North Oxford, approximately a 15-minute walk from the city center (five minutes by bus).
Each house consists of four floors comprised of student rooms, bath and fully-equipped kitchen. There is a computer lab available for academic work and email. Local shops and a first-rate market are nearby, in the city center. ACU faculty and staff will live in the houses throughout the semester.
