Verto’s Partner Colleges & Application Process

A Verto College Counselor will answer your questions about our partner colleges and how the application process works. Learn about how you can get an admission decision from our partner colleges in just two to three weeks, have a better chance of getting into your reach school, and how your credits transfer seamlessly to one of our many partner schools.

Day in the Life of A Semester Abroad

Curious about academics, service learning, and the experiential education component of a location? Learn more about what a Verto itinerary really looks like, from the experiential education curriculum to the unforgettable experiences that accompany classroom learning. Speak with Verto alums to learn more about what to pack, what the experience is really like, and how semesters abroad jumpstart student success!

What to Expect When You Enroll

In this session participants and families will meet with one of Verto’s Student Onboarding Advisors. They will provide an overview of the action steps prospective Vertoans will take between the time they enroll and the time that they land on the ground for the most amazing adventure. This is the perfect opportunity for everyone to get answers to many of the questions they’ve been eager to ask and have a good laugh at the same time!

Speak to an Admissions Counselor

Still have more questions? A Verto Admissions Counselor will be standing by ready to answer any questions you may have and talk you through the admissions process.
