Studying abroad is a life-changing experience, but financial barriers often prevent first-generation and low-income students from participating. CAPS/SSS4Abroad is dedicated to making global learning more accessible by providing financial support to students involved in the Center for Access and Postsecondary Success (CAPS).
Since 2001, over 500 CAPS/SSS students have studied abroad, gaining cultural awareness, leadership skills, and academic enrichment. However, many students continue to face financial barriers that limit their ability to participate. With your donation, we can help break down these barriers and give more CAPS/SSS students the opportunity to expand their education through international experiences.
This year, your support can help CAPS/SSS students pursue study abroad opportunities by providing financial assistance to offset program costs. Whether students are exploring new cultures, engaging in experiential learning, or gaining new perspectives, these experiences can have a lasting impact on their personal, academic, and professional growth.
Your generosity helps open doors to global learning, ensuring that financial circumstances do not have to stand in the way of a transformative educational experience. Together, we can make studying abroad more accessible to CAPS/SSS students and help them bring new perspectives back to the UConn community.
Join us in expanding access to global opportunities. Every dollar counts!
