* On-campus courses in the Arc are modeled on the offerings of the prior academic year. As such, there is a possibility that not all courses will be available during your desired timeframe.
** The Arc should be used solely for planning purposes. Courses must still be applied for through TigerHub, and international experiences must be applied for through the appropriate program administrators.
The Global Arc is always being improved. If you have suggestions that can enhance the user experience, please email us.
