"My time in Paris with CEA has been the most valuable experience in my life thus far. There is not a day that goes by where I don't think about it, and I know it helped me to become more independent, confident, and curious about the world. It influenced me to return to France this year, where I am currently living and working, an..."

"I originally was only going to study aboard for fall term and I just couldn't leave, so I extended my stay for the whole year."
Katie L University of Oregon
"My study abroad experience in Oviedo was absolutely worthwhile. It was a great place to study. There aren't very many people who speak English in the city, minus the students, so you will learn and practice your language every time you step out of your door. Many of the professors are good and are willing to help you if you have..."

Janis University of Oregon
"This study abroad experience was not only a wonderful educational adventure, it was a true reminder to me of what I want to pursue in my life. My time in Greece showed me what a life devoted to the arts can lead to, and seeing that kind of a future first-hand has motivated me more to pursue my personal goals. "
Maggie W University of Oregon
"Loved it. Living abroad really helped me learn more about myself and my place in the world, including how I identify as an American. It couldn't have come at a better time in my life. I gained such a new awareness of other cultures, especially during my travels before and after the program. Traveling within Europe is super cheap..."
Jennifer F University of Oregon
"A new international perspective, more insight into sustainability and renewable energy, fantastic educational experience from very passionate Peruvian professors.The program lodged us in the nicest places and fed us the best food. I met some incredible people in the area. 10/10 experience, absolutely worthwhile."
Zachariah R University of Oregon
"Yes! I had to take out a few loans in order to do this, but I would definitely do it all again anytime! I met and made new friends from all over the world, and feel I have another home away from my own that I could visit anytime in Perth. Traveling and studying in Australia made me realize how much I love meeting new people and ..."
Jacob B University of Oregon
"Key skills I took away from my study abroad experience were: how to budget, travel independently, and how to adjust to culture shock. Melbourne was a great place to study abroad because there was no language barrier in classes, yet I could always find new cultures to explore and discover. Melbourne has a lot diversity in cultur..."
Katie F University of Oregon
"Was my study abroad experience worthwhile? Yes yes yes and YES! The program was not perfect and I have some beefs with the way the administration was set up, both in Italy and at my university, but I had such an amazing time, met amazing people, saw amazing things... How many people can say they've eaten lunch in the ruins of a ..."

"Studying abroad, especially in Italy, is necessary for any architecture student. "
Daniele C University of Oregon
"I was looking for a program that focused on herbalism and a natural, holistic look at life and medicine. I was also hoping to find something that would get me back into a spanish speaking country to practice my fading language skills and support my love of cultural exploration. Nicole's program (and it really is her grown-up bra..."
Lila Kaye University of Oregon
"1000000% worthwhile, this trip has influenced me for the better. "
Kiki Kravitz University of Oregon
"I gained a different perspective on life, met some incredible people and had many new and unique experiences that I will remember forever. Living in a different country introduced me to a new style of life--one where you live in the moment, appreciating what you have and making the most of it. I learned that can't plan everythin..."
Jessica F University of Oregon
"It opened my mind to more of the world which I think is extremely valuable for a young person. I learned more than I ever would have staying at my university for a semester and made friends who go to other universities all across the united states. "
Kira O University of Oregon
"I knew nothing about Middle Eastern culture except for the stereotypes Americans have towards Islamic culture. I wanted to change that. I want to dispel those stereotypes and gain a true understanding of the Middle East, and the best way to do so is by going there. My time in the SIT Geopolitics program was the perfect gateway t..."
Samara University of Oregon
"I learned that the UK is very different from USA, but still has similarities. I enjoyed London because it was easy to live about the country and learn all about the UK because I was able to see so many sites I had learned about my whole life. It also showed me a lot about Europe in general and how all the other countries work to..."
Lindsey L University of Oregon
"Living in an apartment where everyone is in the same situation. "
Lauren P University of Oregon
"It's been almost 4 months since I got back - and all I want to do is go back and continue my experiences there. I don't want to do it over again, because that would imply feelings of regret, but I want to keep on exploring both London, and Europe, in general. Nothing against tourism, but there is simply nothing like living in an..."
Sarah H University of Oregon
"Studying abroad was the best experience that I had while I was in college. I learned so much, I met amazing people both from Eugene and internationally who I am still friends with today. I learned how to open my eyes and accept aspects of Italian culture that I didn't understand or appreciate before and for that I am very thankf..."
Paula M University of Oregon
"I gained a new outlook on the world. Africa is not what you see in pictures or on TV. The only way to really understand is to go there. Media creates a different world than what it is. My future plans include the peace corps and I believe this was a great starting point for that trip. It prepared me for an immersion into a new p..."
Amanda M University of Oregon
"This experience changed my life and I couldn't have done it without ISA. Their service was the right amount of hands on/hand off support to help me meet my academic and personal goals, and it was by far the most affordable option for what was included. My host family was amazing, the food was incredible, the staff both abroad ..."
