UK Ranked First in Kentucky for Sending Students Abroad
A recent report by the Institute of International Education found that UK has more students studying abroad than any other higher education institution in Kentucky.
Studying abroad is considered an unforgettable experience for many of the University of Kentucky’s students. A typical study abroad program transports a group of students to a foreign country. These opportunities offer new perspectives, connections, and fond memories. The Zolondek Scholarship sets itself apart by offering students the opportunity to travel abroad on their own.
