"I learned so much from this experience and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in human rights or social justice issues and learning Arabic. We were also able to conduct our own research which was so immersive and educational. "

"This was absolutely a worthwhile program. I can't think of a better example of experiential learning or learning outside the classroom. I also had the opportunity to travel to some of the most beautiful places I have ever seen in my life."
Isaiah Moore Lafayette College
"I learned so much about field work and ecological research while on this trip. I learned how to create and execute my own research project and live by myself in a foreign country, which was an invaluable experience. "
Soleil F University of Colorado - Boulder
"I loved the experiential learning that this program offered. With a greater independence in our projects, I became a lot more confident as a student and a scientist. The academic rigor of this program made it all the more rewarding. The leaders of our program, Xavier, Ana María, and Diana, were all very knowledgeable and availab..."
Danielle Kleinberg Gettysburg College
"I was challenged academically and I gained a lot confidence in myself. We were given many opportunities to practice field techniques, and the various assignments throughout the semester helped prepare me for the Independent Study Project, which was the most challenging and rewarding academic experience I've ever had."
Ella H Oberlin College
"Learned about culture - worth it"
A student Brandeis University
"My experience with “Mexico: Migration, Borders, and Transnational Communities” was invaluable to my personal, academic, and professional development.

The program was hosted in a beautiful city and there were many planned long and short excursions in addition to the opportunity to travel independently across europe. It wa..."

"I learned about another country and improved my skills as a researcher. It was 110% worth it."
Gabriel Lefkowitz Middlebury College
"I learned skills in field methods and critical thinking, but most importantly I learned how environmental scientists communicate and inform politics. It was very helpful to see how Europe handles climate change differently than the U.S., and bring home new ideologies."
Bianca Peterman Brandeis University
"Yes. See review!"
Aidan Rhodes College
"I had never spent so much time out of the country in one place, so I had never been able to engage with another culture on that same level. Every day I was pushing myself outside of my comfort zone, learning, and enjoying a country that has grown very dear to my heart. It was challenging in many regards, but I needed that push, ..."
Alexa D Emory University
"SIT Morocco was an incredible, life changing program! Living in Rabat and engaging with CCCL Staff not only allowed me to obtain an in depth, extensive experience of the geopolitical histories of Morocco, but I was able to visit a multitude of diverse places across Morocco, including Chefchaouen, Marrakech, Tetouan, the Sahara D..."

"I realized how much I appreciate the outdoors."
A student Wellesley College
"In terms of academics, I learned a great deal about Jordan and the MENA region in terms of political, social, and cultural dynamics. I gained insights from some of Jordan's top thinkers and policymakers, and learned how to negotiate some of these issues with my own skills. My Arabic improved, especially functional/survival use t..."
Nora Kenyon College
"It was definitely worthwhile! I learned about the cultures of the countries we lived in, and about how they approach issues of public health, government, diplomacy, etc. This was very beneficial to me in terms of thinking about future career paths. I continued to learn how the rest of the world views the US, which is not the way..."

A student Macalester College
"I learned more about myself, my limits & comfort levels, what my interests are, where I want to spend my time, and who I want to spend it with. It was absolutely worthwhile and I would encourage everyone to go abroad if they can."
Annie Rhodes College
"My french improved, I learned so much on an academic and human level and grew so much as a person. It was 100% worth it."
Allegra B Macalester College
"Overall, I had mixed feelings about the semester. As parts of the overall experience ranged from amazing, insightful, and inspiring, to stifling, irrelevant, and narrow minded, it's safe to say it was a real roller-coaster ride. The Balkans are an incredible place full of every kind of person imaginable, awe-inspiring sights, an..."
A student University of Michigan - Ann Arbor
"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..."
