Study Abroad with SIT Study Abroad
"Very worthwhile- gained self confidence "
A student Brandeis University

"While I certainly learned about climate change and the arctic ecosystem/culture, more than anything, I learned about people and how to function independently. Life can be tough in the bitter cold of Greenland and darkness of Iceland but these communities have adapted and figured out what to do with what little they have - a key ..."

A student Brandeis University

A student Trinity University
"I learned a ton from my experience abroad. I learned a ton about South Africa, and this helped me to think about the U.S. in a different way. I learned that I can go through difficult situations without my usual support systems and still make it through. I gained independence, confidence in my abilities, more knowledge about the..."

Harper Baldwin Middlebury College
"YES SO WORTHWHILE. Gained friends, stories, the ability to really just go for it and do so much out of my comfort zone, how to deal with myself, how to deal with awkward situations. I learned equally about me as an individual as I learned in terms of academic content and language development. Such a rewarding experience, I think..."

"I had never traveled abroad before this experience. First, I learned a lot Spanish and increased my confidence in speaking.
