PROGRAM OVERVIEW

APU partners with Study Abroad Lithuania (LCC International University or "LCC") to provide an adventure packed with international experience, European culture, and new friendships in the 5-week Lithuania Summer Program.

LCC International University is a North American style liberal arts university with a Christian worldview that operates completely in English. Located in Klaipėda, Lithuania, this program offers a unique and truly international learning environment with students and faculty from over 60 countries. Travel to 4 countries in one summer with program excursions in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland. Whether for a semester or summer, students will create a second home in Lithuania. 

APU REQUIREMENTS

• APU prerequisites are mandatory.

• Registration is all through your APU Account. Upon acceptance, students will be granted access to register for study away sections of the courses.

TRANSFER CREDIT & COURSE SUBSTITUTION

• Students will need to complete a Transfer Credit & Course Substitution (TCCS) Form to transfer course credit to APU credits.

• A TCCS Form will be required for courses not already approved by APU. Submitted forms go through all academic required departments and results (approvals or denials) are emailed back to students. Results from the TCCS process must be obtained prior to departure so you only take courses that count towards your degree. Keep the results so you have proof of how your program courses will count once you complete them.
