Study Abroad with IFSA
"I have a growing interest in international issues instead of focusing on U.S. problems. I also learned a lot more Spanish and plan to continue speaking Spanish here in the states."
Gaby M Trinity University
"Absolutely, best time of my life."
Brian M Fordham University
"Absolutely worthwhile. It went by far too quickly! I saw a bit of the world that was once so foreign to me, and now it feels like home. Also, now I feel that with the right mindset and enough time, anywhere can feel like home."
A student
"I learned so much about the world and about myself. I am so much stronger for having done it."
Julia O Carleton College
"I am more culturally aware and have accepted many new cultures into my life. I am more open and environmentally-aware, and now know that I can deal with so much more than I ever thoguht I could. "
Sarah R Valparaiso University
"I would not trade my experiences. I was able to make great friends and I feel like I became much more independent while overseas. My studies at UCC have changed my academic plans for the future and distance from home gives you a great opportunity to think things through on your own."
Aubrey S Western Washington University
"i learned from it but i probably will never return to the UK again."
Madison H Western Washington University
"YES! My study abroad experience helped gain me a broader world view on everything from politics to popular culture to fashion and food."
Robin C George Washington University
"Learned a new language, history, and culture. I also came back with new friends, some American, some Chilean and even a girlfriend! Study abroad in Chile was a fantastic opportunity and I can't wait to travel more!"
Gabriel K University of Denver
"I became more self sufficient and adventurous. I don't think Australia provides cultural awareness in the same way countries with a language barrier do. However, there is a whole other perspective of the world because Australia is this far off land that gets left off the map. Yet it has so much to offer, people should really tak..."
Mallette A Vanderbilt University
"Yes, I absolutely loved it, and I hope to go back after I graduate."
Elizabeth Madison Y University of Memphis

Maria Jose T Trinity University
"Yes. "
Holly H Trinity University
"I really learned what it is like to experience the English culture. I honestly made a home for myself in London through the relationships I formed and the memories I made while living there. Learning a foreign city, and one as big as London, is really an accomplishment and it taught me that I have it in me to really go anywhere."
Ryan T Trinity University
"Yes it was definitely worthwhile, I learned a lot about the culture and the language."
Lindsey W Trinity University
"I am so much more independent now. Before study abroad, I had never been out of the US. But now I've studied in Australia for a semester without knowing anyone I was going with, visited the Great Barrier Reef with a group of new friends, and backpacked through New Zealand for 2 weeks completely on my own. Study abroad was the be..."
Aimee S Trinity University
"It was a great experience"
Sarah C Tufts University
"better spanish and a better grasp on south american culture"
Samantha S Trinity University
"The only good things I have to say are that my Spanish improved exponentially and that I earned a lot of academic credits."
Laura R Barnard College
"I learned a lot. "
Abraham W Brandeis University
"It has only increased my thirst for travel and interacting with new cultures."
Laura G Fordham University
"I learned about how a seemingly similar country can be so different. I learned that the UK is much different from the USA, in many more ways than the change in accent! (The people, the climate, the politics, the economy, the culture, etc.) "
Raya S Brandeis University
