Global Studies Residential Academic Program

In this new millennium, the most successful people will be those that have become internationally adept. The Global Studies Academic Program (G-RAP)at Cheyenne Arapaho seeks to further students' recognition of global interdependencies and to promote international understanding.

G-RAP provides a great environment for first-year students planning to major in the arts, anthropology, business, foreign languages, geography, history, international affairs, journalism, or political science; those planning to earn an international certificate in the Leeds School of Business; those interested in studying abroad; or those simply interested in learning about the world. If you have not yet decided upon a major, G-RAP is a great place to discover your international interests.

All G-RAP students are required to take at least one designated course with an international focus in the fall and spring semesters. G-RAP language clubs, field trips, community projects, and special presentations by faculty, who are renowned for their international work, provide informal learning opportunities outside the classroom. For more detailed information, visit the G-RAP site.

Cost: $765 nonrefundable fee per academic year (09-10 rate)
