Abstract
This study was undertaken to evaluate the demographic characteristics along with facilitating and deterring factors affecting undergraduate students that applied to and were selected to participate in a 2-week study abroad program to Beijing, China. Results indicate that personal supporting factors were the strongest of the encouraging factors while financial considerations were the most deterring factor considerations. A majority of the student participants received information about this study abroad opportunity from faculty members.
