Global Passport

Are you new to St. John's and interested in studying abroad on the Global Passport program? We're excited to hear it! New information on program dates, deadlines and courses will be launched March 1st. Please be sure to check back for more information. 


This exciting program offers an exclusive opportunity for incoming students to view their course study through an international lens, while fulfilling a core requirement. In addition, professors will utilize the historic and cultural riches of each city to bring the academic content to life. 

Though the bulk of your Passport Program course will take place in New York during the fall or spring semester, this innovative study abroad option provides you with the opportunity to live in, study and explore Rome for a 10-day period at the end of a semester.

Highlights include:

  • Excursions to neighboring cities
  • Tours of historical sites
  • Explore local flavor with Rome staff

The Global Passport Program reinforces the St. John’s Vincentian heritage by asking students to give back by giving of themselves, immersing themselves in local culture through volunteer work at places like Rome’s Caritas soup kitchen. This exceptional opportunity will show you a far different, more enriching side of the city that is rarely explored by tourists.

Through your academic study, guided tours and community service, you become a metropolitan citizen – a citizen not just of our New York City campuses, but of the world.
