No important dates configured."It was 100% worthwhile. I gained knowledge of new cultures and got to see so many beautiful places. I also got to meet so many new people."
Lyric Loglisci Clemson University
"This was the most worthwhile college experience! I not only learned to be more independent, but I also learned a variety of life skills such as international communication, learning to travel (figuring out bus/train/plane) schedules, time management, prioritization, and much more!"
Rachel Zurcher Clemson University
"I learned how much there is to explore outside of the US. I was in Australia for 4 months and traveled somewhere new every weekend and still felt like I could have seen more. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience and I wouldn't sacrifice it for anything!"
James Piechnik Clemson University
"I think that entering a foreign country without knowing anyone had a very large impact on me. Sol took care of me from the beginning, and the trips we took as a group allowed all of the students to bond. I now feel very confident in my abilities to work with anyone - even students I met for the first time studying abroad in Arge..."
Blakely Holcombe Clemson University
"Yes. I would not change a thing if I could do it over again. It was the perfect experience to garner exposure to many different cultures, increase international IQ, form friendships with amazing people from different backgrounds, and have a ton of fun."
Scott T Clemson University
"Being half-way around the world really instills a sense of true independence, there’s no going home or having your mom around to help when you run into trouble. I learned to do things on my own which pushed me to enjoy doing things on my own as well. If nobody was around to head up to the beach or go to dinner, I found myself go..."
Melissa FIscher Clemson University
"I gained a lifetime's worth of knowledge while traveling for only 5 weeks. I would say it was well worth my time and money."
Rachel Carlton Clemson University
"Studying abroad is SO worthwhile and I would recommend it to just about anyone! Not only did I learn about Singapore and the culture there, but studying abroad taught me a lot about traveling (Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam) which allowed me to learn about even more cultures and lifestyles. "
Emmala Alfaro Clemson University
"An entire semester in Sydney was a whole new experience. Picking up and moving to another country teaches you so many lessons that you can only learn from being abroad. I learned what it's like to deal with a time change of 16 hours, as well as moving in with people I had never met before, and wouldn't change any of it. It was g..."

Annie G Clemson University
"Being abroad made me more confident in meeting other people as well as more accepting and more conscious of other cultures. Being abroad was the best experience I've ever been through. Every student should seek this opportunity."
Courtney P Clemson University
"Saying that Semester at Sea was worthwhile is a understatement. It was the most important, inspirational and incredible adventure I've ever been on. I learned so much about the world and about myself. Its hard to put this kind of experience into words because of how truly amazing every aspect of my voyage was. "
Zach U Clemson University
"Meeting people from not only Australia, but places like Norway and Germany helps to give a great degree of cultural understanding. I did group projects with a girl from France, a guy from Thailand and a girl from China. Living abroad shows you just how much there is to see outside of the United States, and has shaped my future..."
Frank D Clemson University
"I got significantly better at Spanish while living with my host family. I learned to budget my money better and I got very skilled at planning travel. It was better than I could have expected."
Kelly Clemson University
"I learned so much about the culture here in Cyprus and how enjoyable it is to live in such a small place where everyone knows everybody. It was a very intimate study abroad experience and I feel like I was really able to connect with other people in the program and learn a lot about myself as well. "
A student Clemson University

A student Clemson University

Julianna E Clemson University
"Barcelona is a beautiful, lively city never with a shortage of something to do. It really has everything you could ever want while traveling abroad. There was some of the best food I have ever had and there was so much history and beautiful architecture to take in. I can't forget to mention the exciting social scene. Barcelona w..."
