Goucher is the first liberal arts college in the nation to require all undergraduate students to study abroad, whether for a three-week intensive course, semester, or year-long program in one of nearly 30 countries. The College provides a special travel stipend for every undergraduate and is teaching its students to engage the world as true global citizens. Newsweek named Goucher “Most Happy” of its “Hot Schools of 2004.” Education expert Loren Pope featured Goucher in his book, Colleges that Change Lives, calling Goucher “one of the best kept secrets of top-quality coed colleges.”
