Study Abroad with IFSA
"Independence, Strength, Etc. Yes,"
Mitchell C Austin College
"Overall I absolutely loved my study abroad experience, mainly because I love to travel. I'm really glad I finally got to experience the UK academic system first hand because I hear a lot about it from friends who are permanent students there. However, I was not that impressed with the Informatics department at the University of ..."
A student Brandeis University
"It was worthwhile from a social and interpersonal aspect. I learned a lot about myself and about the world around me. However, it was not worthwhile academically. "
A student Drake University
"It was wonderful to experience a city I'd been wanting to visit for years. I loved the culture, and the actual experience of living in Central London. I gained a real sense of confidence and comfort, and it was totally worthwhile."
Sarian H Brandeis University

A student Brandeis University

Bethany S Trinity University
"I gained a great understanding of the world and myself. It was very worthwhile. The program was awesome and helpful, I may have chosen another university through the program though"
Matthew D Trinity University
"I learned a lot about the history of Peru, which is probably history I wouldn't have learned otherwise. I learned a lot of different worldly perspectives on issues like race and gender and socialism vs. capitalism (to name a few). I also learned that I can adapt to new situations even if they're not ideal for me."
A student Trinity University

"Chinese speaking. Independence. "
Daniel D Trinity University
"Lots of language progress. But also lots of fun. Also completed a capstone project, and LOTS of travel around China (my favorite part of the whole experience)."

A student Wellesley College
"With every experience like this you are going to learn so much about yourself , and the world around you. "
Claire I Trinity University
"I learned about myself. I learned how to be content with being on my own and adjust to new situations. I also learned how to make decisions in frustrating or even scary situations. "
Jordan S The University of Texas at Austin
"It was definitely worthwhile. I think I'll still be figuring out what exactly I learned from the experience long after my return date because it's given me a new, different perspective on my experiences before, during, and after the program. "
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned so much about myself, my studies, and the differences and similarities between American culture and British culture. I was enrolled in the chemistry department, so I was able to compare different learning styles in my concentration of study, which was a really rewarding experience. I loved living in London and going ..."
A student Austin College
"I learned so much about myself and how to get to know others. I could go on for pages about what I've learned, and it was one of the most worthwhile experiences of my life. I can't believe that it all actually happened - I met so many great people and had the best time in an extraordinarily gorgeous country - I feel like it was ..."
Jamie W Austin College
"Ultimately you only get out of an experience what you put in. My time in London was worthwhile because I made sure it would be. I connected to local art and culture communities that kept me busy and learning. "
Malika I Brandeis University
"To live life as is with all minor details, instead of focusing on the pig picture. Was it worthwhile...not even a question!"
Karina A Brandeis University
