Study Abroad with IFSA
"It was honestly the best experience of my life! I came back so much more confident and knowledgeable about myself. I cannot say enough good things about the overall experience.

A student Brandeis University
"I loved the city and learned a lot from the experience."
A student Brandeis University

A student University of Southern California
"I definitely gained a sense of independence. One day over spring break between trips I was back in Christchurch for the day but none of my friends were. I walked to the mall to get groceries and enjoyed hammocking outside by myself. I'm surprised by how easily I found myself doing that because I am someone who loves to be around..."
