Trinity University
University Information
The Study Abroad program at Trinity University is designed to be accessible and flexible. With proper planning, students from every major can study abroad productively in many different countries around the world as a part of their degree.
This is possible because Trinity's program is based on individually advising each student so that the term abroad becomes an integral part of the degree that meets academic, personal, and professional goals. As a result Trinity students participate in a wide variety of academic experiences abroad from studying in a foreign university classroom to academic internships to intensive language study to field studies - or a some combination of these things.

"As the title of my post suggests, I encountered numerous challenges while abroad. Not every day was a dream vacation. Looking back though, I learned and grew from every challenge.

"More than anything, I feel like the musical takeaways were what will really stick with me after this experience. I learned so much about myself as a musician by being in such a musically rich program and city. I also feel that I am a smarter and more efficient traveler as a result of this program. It was ABSOLUTELY worthwhile."

I also learned to be strong and confident in where ever you go even if you aren't completely sure. Lastly, I learned to embrace change. Change is good and although it ..."
