Message from the Director
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the New Jersey State Consortium for International Studies.
As a non-profit organization whose mission is to facilitate overseas studies, NJSCIS offers academically challenging and personally rewarding international experiences at an affordable price. For over 40 years students at NJ State colleges and beyond have profited from our programs. With the pre-approval of your academic advisor, credits will apply to your college degree, and financial aid and scholarships can be used to pay for your program. We also offer summer programs if your curriculum does not easily allow you to spend a semester abroad during the normal academic year.
For international students who wish to spend a semester in New Jersey, we know of no better place to pursue your studies. Our member institutions offer hundreds of programs for every interest and specialization. Please refer to our online brochure for more information.
If you have ever considered an international experience, then you should take advantage of what NJSCIS has to offer - there are incredible opportunities that await you!
The NJSCIS coordinators and I look forward to helping you select a Study Abroad program that will give you the personal, academic and professional experience of a lifetime.
Dr. Edward C. Smith III
Executive Director, NJSCIS
