We understand that an international location for study away isn\u2019t right, available, or accessible for every Macalester student. Therefore, while the majority of the programs on our approved list are international study abroad programs, we offer a limited number of domestic study away options, listed below. We acknowledge that the list of approved domestic programs is short, and therefore also include other domestic programs that might be an option for Macalester students.
