Program Overview

You’ll gain the religious literacy essential to comprehend and work in our increasingly globalized society. You’ll look at how people think about ultimate questions, whether or not you identify as religious.

Better understand humanity and yourself

Religion touches nearly every aspect of our world and society — literature, politics, current events, history, personal interactions and more.

Contemplate the ultimate questions, think critically and creatively about world religions, and analyze religious texts from various perspectives. You’ll be challenged to become a more compassionate, empathetic and self-aware global citizen.

Interdisciplinary approach

One of our most popular classes, Being Awesome at Life, examines the definition of a good life across cultures and throughout history. Science and Religion take a serious look at scientific and religious claims to find overlaps of agreement.

Other classes cover major world religions and how they relate to fields like ethics, archaeology, philosophy and environmental studies. Adding one of our interdisciplinary minors, like leadership and diversity studies, helps you gain a better understanding of important topics in today’s world.

Your education won’t end in the classroom. Join one of our very active student-run religious life groups. Study abroad through our Global Opportunities program to get a firsthand look at the religions of the world in Europe, Asia, Africa or South America.

    Scholarships

    Scholarships are awarded to qualified students by Susquehanna and others and do not have to be repaid. Many scholarships are awarded independent of financial need, although those through our gift endowment program are based on financial need. You’ll be automatically considered for scholarships through Susquehanna and cannot apply directly for them.

    International students are eligible to receive partial merit scholarship awards and are automatically considered when the application for admission is completed. It is very helpful and advantageous for applicants to submit their official SAT or ACT scores to maximize their scholarship award potential.

    Applicants can receive up to a $45,000 (USD) merit scholarship. Sponsored students are not eligible to receive a merit scholarship award. Susquehanna University does not offer any need based financial aid for international students.

    In order to qualify for a student visa, the U.S. government’s Department of Homeland Security requires that students show that they can support themselves financially. Enrolling students must provide an official bank statement in addition to the International Student Financial Aid Application submitted with your application. If you are offered a merit scholarship, this amount can be lower. Please note that full scholarships are not available. If you are sponsored by your government, the financial guarantee letter will be accepted instead of the International Student Financial Aid Application.
