Overview
RIT students can spend a semester at RIT Dubai through the university's global-campus study-abroad route; the current page lists October 1 as the Spring application deadline.
Complete opportunity details
RIT's official Study Abroad at RIT Dubai page describes semester study in Dubai across engineering, computing, business and liberal-arts/elective subjects. Students typically take at least 12 credits during a 16-week semester. The current page states that Spring runs from late January to mid-May and gives October 1 as the Spring application deadline. Program costs can include the student's normal RIT tuition, a program fee covering items such as housing, cultural excursions, airport transportation and international health/emergency evacuation insurance, plus personal out-of-pocket costs. These are costs, not scholarships; no free travel or housing benefit is claimed.
Eligibility requirements
The current page specifically addresses RIT Rochester students studying abroad at RIT Dubai. Students should work with an RIT study-abroad advisor to confirm course fit, academic standing, program availability and visa documentation before committing to travel.
