Study Abroad with IFSA
"Extremely worthwhile"
Chris Bradbury Middlebury College
"I learned that it is important to go abroad where you want to go, not where everyone else is going. I gained a new sense of independence. It was absolutely worth it."
A student Brandeis University
"Acceptance, Perspectives, and additional family. Worth it. "
Carmela Belizaire Brandeis University
"It's hard to boil it all down, but going abroad strengthened my friendships (and my relationship with my significant other). I'm closer with some friends, and my SO, than when I left. Being on the other side of the planet really taught me that friendship is about putting out effort and putting out care and it pushed me to become..."
Danni T Brandeis University
"I was very happy to be in a different country. I think it changed a lot about my character and gave me insight about a new culture. Everything was worthwhile. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learnt about the local culture in Scotland, and made amazing friends. I also learnt how to travel by myself, and be more independent. Even though the overall experience was great, it was not really related to the University of Edinburgh itself, as most of my classes were not taking place during the majority of the semester. Fo..."
A student Brandeis University
"Learned massively about Europe. Politically, socially, etc. London brings people from across the world and I loved being a part of that."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about myself, and I guess that's part of the point in going abroad, to learn about yourself and becoming a better person. I got to learn about living in a space a bit out of my comfort zone, and how to enjoy traveling, with people and by myself. It was all completely worthwhile."
A student Brandeis University
"It was absolutely worthwhile! Because the courses I took were far less demanding than my typical Brandeis courses, I had a lot of time to just go out and explore the city. "
Courtney Brandeis University
"I improved my Spanish so much that I would now consider myself to be fluent. I think in Spanish without trying and I use it regularly to communicate with the friends I made. I learned a lot about the political and economic structure of México from conversations with my peers and host family. I also learned about differences that..."
Nina R Brandeis University
"It was interesting to function within a different academic system, but it did make me appreciate my education in the US. I also loved being able to go to so many museums and learn outside of the classroom. It was an incredible five months of living independently, getting to know London, and traveling all over."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned I can live in a foreign place away from family and thrive, and I am good at languages. Very worthwhile."
Noah M Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about the Chinese culture, history and language through the local people I got to meet. I would definitely "
A student Brandeis University

"I gained a new world perspective and have made professional networks "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned so much about Chilean culture and Chilean Spanish. It was one of the best experiences of my life"
A student University of Denver
"Yes! I learned more about my career path and myself. I learned that I had this creativity within me and it ultimately formed my career path away from politics and into design/graphic design. "
Jessica Jordano George Washington University
"I got better at research paper writing. I was taught how to use quantitative and qualitative research methods. This is a great experience to have. Also, I got a sense of how many cultures in the world think and act. "
Miguel Correa Hampden-Sydney College
"Learned how to live immersed in a new society and culture! Was 100% worthwhile"
Lucy Somers Kenyon College
"I learned how to manage a bevy of responsibilities. I gained confidence in my language and travel abilities. I met some great people. I learned how to better utilize my patience and resilience. Great learning experience "
Jake J North Central College
"It was incredibly worthwhile. I gained Spanish skills, made great relationships (both with other students and my host family) and experienced a new culture "
A student Davidson College
"I learned a lot about being independent and stepping out of my comfort zone. It was extremely worthwhile and I would recommend to anyone thinking of studying in Australia! "
Sammy Attia Colby College
"It was definitely a worthwhile experience. The academics is not as intensive as Wellesley, so you will have plenty of time to enjoy the culture and lifestyle abroad. "
A student Wellesley College
"It was really worthwhile- I learned about the history of New Zealand and the Maori culture, got to travel and hike in some of the most beautiful places on Earth, and met some lifelong friends. I also became much more independent and learned a lot about living/traveling on a budget. "
A student Kenyon College
"It was completely worthwhile and I would do it again in a second. I had an amazing experience and became much more independent. The city is beautiful and I was able to learn about Scotland and take a great computer science course."
