Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."I learned to take care of myself, budget, and most importantly appreciate another culture and speak Spanish! It was totally worth it. I have an entirely different view of everything now."
Kayla M Clemson University
"It was most definitely worthwhile. I learned a lot about self-autonomy and how to adapt to uncertain or even confusing environments/situations."
A student 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..."
A student Clemson University
"I don't think it would be possible for this program to immerse you in the culture more. We took weekly field trips, many excursions, and met a lot of local friends that I will stay in contact with."
A student Clemson University
"SO MUCH! culture, language, etc. "
A student Clemson University
"This was absolutely worth my time! As a senior, every time I practice for job interview questions, I reference my internship and how I came out of any hardships that I had, and how I purely enjoyed working for the boutique PR company in Auckland, NZ, Lily & Louis. "
Mackenzie Wangler 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
"100% worth every penny. "

Will C 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
"I learned a lot about myself as a person while abroad. It opened my eyes to the importance of traveling and living in a new place. My experience abroad showed me all the amazing opportunities around the world that many people let pass them by. Studying abroad has made me realize that I don't want to be one of those people. It ha..."
A student Clemson University
"DEFINITELY. gained spanish skills, knowledge of the spanish culture, friendships from all around Europe, traveling experience, the opportunity to find myself and appreciate life. "
Holly C Clemson University
"Most definitely. Some days were more difficult than others, but I had a great time overall and would love to do it again some day. "
Megan D Clemson University
"Well I gained a lot more confidence in myself, and it sounds really cliche but I learned more about who I am since this was the biggest step I've ever taken away from home. I learned that for the rest of my life I want to keep living in international countries, learning the language, and experiencing the culture. I learned that ..."
JennaMarie Baker Clemson University
"My experience was above and beyond what I expected of the program. I have made friends from all walks of life that I will cherish forever. I now have a more complete understanding of the direction I am heading in for the future as I pursue a degree in International Development. I was able to take advantage of once in a lifetime ..."

brooke.koonsman Clemson University
"There is too much to list from everything I have learned and gained, but it was extremely worth while and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested!"
A student Clemson University
"I learned SO much from this experience. I was never very interested in outdoorsy activities or knew much about NZ before I went so I was really stepping outside my comfort zone. TEAN is first class all the way and really made my transition to the Kiwi lifestyle a lot easier. It was definitely worthwhile!"
Emily H Clemson University
"I could type for hours and not mention everything I learned from my abroad experience. I learned so much about different cultures, how different people live, new foods, and what a gorgeous country New Zealand is. New Zealand taught me to be more adventurous, outgoing, willing to try almost anything, and to look at everything wit..."
allegra.simone6 Clemson University
"My experience was definitely worthwhile, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone. It takes you out of your comfort zone and allows you to open yourself up to new experiences. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity that allows you to assimilate yourself into a new culture while you are young and impressionable. It's hard t..."
Jill T Clemson University
"It was absolutely worthwhile. You have to be open to anything to make it so. "
Elena F Clemson University
"I learned how to slow down and not rush as much. This is good because I am a very impatient person. I think this was the most worthwhile thing I have ever done. I plan on teaching English in Spain once I graduate (hopefully in Granada). I want to live in Granada forever. "
Molly C Clemson University
"I gained more proficiency in the language of French and wonderful friends. Yes I would recommend it to anyone I know. "
Darby S 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
"It was worthwhile and I learned how to manage money"
Sims Patton Clemson University
