Study Abroad with IFSA
"I significantly improved my speaking and listening skills in Chinese. This is a worthy progress because learning Chinese was one of my main objectives in this study abroad.

"ABSOLUTELY! I wouldn't change a single thing about my experience abroad. I learned so much about myself and so much about Scotland and international perspectives. Going abroad really allowed me to prioritize the experiences I want to have in life and I know that I want to return to Europe after College. Studying abroad is one of..."

"I'm 25 now and if I die tomorrow I could happily say I've already lived a life at least three times as full and rich as the lives of many Americans. Chile is a wonderful country... very safe (especially for South America) and the most gorgeous you will ever see. They have everything there from famous beaches to deserts to iceber..."
Sarah K University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill
"I love the country. For such a small country, it has a little of everything and is rapidly growing in popularity. I'm glad I got to see it before it became too developed. The people are all very special to me. Everyone I met there became my family, not only my familia, which I will keep in contact with and make sure to visit, bu..."

"It was easily one of the best decisions in my life to study abroad. I wish I would have had a bit more free time when it came to class work outside of school, but being in London made it worth while. "
Nicholas B The University of Texas at Austin
"If I could go on this program every summer for the rest of my life I would do it. The directors were phenomenal, the activities were always fun and so well-organized, the classes were stimulating, the people were welcoming, I could go on and on. I think it's very important for everyone to travel and see other peoples' lives in o..."

Emily G Tulane University
"While I do not regret my experience in Buenos Aires, I am sad that my program was not more supportive (and thus I cannot recommend it very highly compared to another program). However, though life at times was more difficult than I anticipated, I am met some wonderful people and learned a lot about what my limits are and how muc..."

"Yeah it was! I learned to be more accepting and I also was able to step out of my comfort zone, learn new things about myself (both good and bad qualities) to improve upon or eradicate. "

"London is a true crossroads of the world. Within the city I was able to experience so many different cultures, by meeting such a huge variety of people all brought together in one place.

"It was wonderful. It made me a better student. I realized how much I love America. I discovered quirky British words, and things they do totally differently. Oxford is basically Hogwarts. I would highly recommend."
Alexandra C Tufts University
"Australia is not that different from the United States in terms of culture. The people however are more relaxed and seem to enjoy life more and stress out less than people I have met in the northeast. My time there showed me that though work is very important, its also just as important to make time to relax and have fun. I hope..."
