Glimpse Institutional Membership


1 Dollar = 1 Student = 1 World

For $1 per student, Glimpse Institutional Membership provides tools for enhancing your students’ study abroad experience, and also offers opportunities to increase your public profile.

The Glimpse Foundation is a nonprofit that works to promote cross-cultural understanding and exchange, particularly between the United States and the rest of the world, by providing forums for sharing the experiences of young adults living and studying abroad.

Glimpse works closely with students and staff at our member institutions to maximize the study abroad experience and assist students in all phases of the study abroad process. Our Institutional Members range from community colleges to Ivy League universities to independent program providers.

The benefits go on and on!
