GLOBAL SCHOLARS PROGRAM
The world needs Moore—Literally...
Announcing our new signature Global Scholars Program, with travel funding for all students who meet the program eligibility requirements and are incoming first-year students in Fall 2026!
At Moore, we believe that travel is an essential part of education. So we created the selective, funded Global Scholars Program to promote continuous professional and personal growth—beginning in the very first year of your college journey. Global Scholars gain cultural and artistic exposure, become eyewitnesses to art-making past and present, and prepare for the global creative economy. Because seeing the world doesn’t just spark creativity—it boosts employability too. In a survey, 44% of employers stated they are more likely to hire a candidate with global learning experience.
Built on Moore’s 24 years of expertise in educational travel, the Global Scholars Program offers a rare opportunity for travel early in college. Designed with high-achieving students in mind, the program offers a cohort-based, immersive launchpad for creative careers.
Destinations will be announced in advance, and the first Global Scholars international trip will take place in January 2027. Keep an eye on our social channels @moorecollegeart for destination reveals and updates!
MOBILITY PROGRAMS
Moore students can access additional opportunities for international study through mobility programs that are offered. Moore College of Art & Design participates in the mobility program of the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design (AICAD). This is an informal relationship through which undergraduate students from Moore may spend one semester at a member institution. The Mobility program is open to students in their junior year. The student pays tuition to Moore, not the host institution, and must finance her own room and board. While there are a number of member institutions in the United States, the Canadian affiliates are as follows:
CANADIAN AFFILIATES
Alberta College of Art & Design – Calgary
Emily Carr University of Art & Design – Vancouver
Nova Scotia College of Art & Design – Halifax
Ontario College of Art & Design – Toronto
