[Part 1 of a series]
De La Salle University is part of a network of La Salle schools in over 79 countries. The University also has a wealth of linkages and partnerships with other international academic institutions, making it ideal for undergraduate and graduate students who may want to explore exchange and dual programs.
With the introduction of RevEd, undergraduate students will be given the opportunity to grow even more and prepare themselves for the real world, thanks to the Global Enrichment Term. During this time, students will have the option to take longer internships, do volunteer work and community engagement projects, work on start-ups, or study overseas. In addition, those who are pursuing graduate studies can also find opportunities to study abroad!
Here are some of the top international study destinations for Lasallians.
Australia
Many DLSU students choose to go to the Land Down Under. Australia is currently the third most popular study destination for students in English-speaking countries because of its high educational standards, friendly locals, and cultural diversity.
