BYU runs the largest study-abroad program in the United States, with satellite centers in London, Jerusalem, and Paris, as well as more than 20 other sites. The Institute of International Education ranks BYU as the number one university in the US
to offer students study abroad opportunities; nearly 2,000 students take advantage of these programs yearly. BYU's motto is "The
World is Our Campus".(The BYU Jerusalem Center closed indefinitely in 2002
due to safety concerns related to the Second Intifada.)
