Study Abroad Foundation (SAF)
SAF provides opportunities to study at a university in the U.S. & Canada,
England, Scotland and Ireland, as well as Australia & New Zealand for one
year or one semester including English language learning as part of
the program (if required). Academic credit transfer between universities is
possible.
Flexibility and Variety
SAF's "visiting student study abroad program" is designed to provide the
maximum level of flexibility and variety in order to meet the study abroad
interests and needs of undergraduate university students from Japan, Korea,
Mainland China and Taiwan. SAF understands the diverse academic calendars
in the Asia-Pacific region and the varying levels of English proficiency of
potential participants. With these factors in mind, we have created a
program with flexible start dates and English language "pre-sessional" programs
that accommodate students with TOEFL scores between 133-250 CBT or a 4.5-6.5
IELTS. Learn

Credit Transfer: Opportunities and Challenges
The SAF programs are based upon the philosophy that, whenever possible, the
academic courses students undertake while abroad should receive appropriate
transfer credit and be applied toward students' degree completion requirements
at their home university. Learn
