Program Information
The Asia University America Program (AUAP) is a study abroad program for freshman and sophomore students from Asia University in Tokyo, Japan. Two groups of students come to CWU each year for five months. The program is presently ongoing at two other universities in the northwest: WWU and EWU. AUAP provides students from Asia University the opportunity to improve their English skills and experience university life in the U.S. Students attend 18 hours of AUAP classes per week following the required curriculum from Asia University.
International Study Courses
INTL courses are offered only in university-approved study abroad/exchange programs. Courses may be offered and repeated for credit under different titles.
