Study Abroad with SIT Study Abroad
"This experience was definitely worthwhile. I improved my Spanish speaking abilities a lot, I learned to navigate a big city, and I grew in my confidence and independence. I also learned a lot about public health and the Argentine health care system."
A student Santa Clara University
"I had already learned about most of the ecological concepts we studied during the semester, but the experiential knowledge and connections I made really helped me learn it in a way that I never could in a classroom."
John T University of Tulsa
"The main things I gained were botanical knowledge, field research experience, and connections with the science community in Ecuador. Not too much new academically, but the experiences were great. I also saw a fair number of birds, which for a birder like me was great."
A student Bowdoin College
"It was worth while because this program opened my eyes to the injustice of the world, and that there is a small hope that people might be able to help those who are suffering from having their land used as a petrol drilling area"
Kelsey A Luther College
" I learned so much while abroad! It was 1000% worthwhile. I loved that the program had a specific, interesting and relevant field that all our courses and activities pertained to, and I learned so much from these components of the program. I also learned a great deal about myself and really matured and grew individually just fr..."
A student Colby College
"I made meaningful relationships with my host family, with the program directors, and with the other students in my program. I learned a lot about myself, what i value, and how I want to live my life. I learned how to communicate with people from other parts of the world, I learned how to conduct my own research project, I gain..."
Maggie H Tulane University
"Absolutely worthwhile! Learned so many life skills and how to juggle everything that it throws at you. "
A student Barnard College
"My experience abroad was incredible. I completely fell in love with Chile and with learning in Chile. I learned so much about what I was interested and how to interact and be independent in a completely new culture. "
aleirawanders Mount Holyoke College
"I had very little fieldwork experience before my program, and knew the minimal amount of ecology for my program. After the program, I was by no means an expert, but definitely knew a lot more than when I began the program. "
A student Wellesley College
"I learned a lot of normal glasslike things to learn about, but I think more importantly I learned to be confident in my Spanish and how to use it. I also learned so much about life, as I'd never lived in a city before and spent such an extensive time in a new culture."
Julia R Colby College
"I realized how interested I was in ecology and actual research. This program only served to increase my passion for environmental science and protecting nature. Even though I've been sick for a while after returning, I would do it all over again without hesitation. The only thing I was upset about was having to leave!!"
ecuacology2014 University of Virginia
"I learned a lot about the peoples and cultures of Peru. Additionally, I greatly improved my Spanish skills and feel much more confident in my ability to communicate with others in Spanish. I made many great friends, both Peruvian and from the states, that I know I will stay in touch with for a long time to come. I learned many t..."
Willow S The College of Wooster
"I deeply cherish my study abroad opportunity with the SIT Perú: Globalization and Indigenous People program. Community within the program grows deeply and closely between the students within the program and the program staff, while also offering endless possibilities for you to be as much or as little immersed into the Peruvian ..."
Hannah P Wake Forest University
"Mastery of a language, a host of new friends (many of whom I consider family), and a different adventure every day. I couldn't have asked for more."
A student Kenyon College
"I learned how to engage in a new kind of community I had never experienced before; living with an indigenous group really alters the way we understand our roles within the world and especially from the US. I have never been more continually shocked by US involvement in Chilean politics and never been more impressed by the openne..."
Amy M The College of Wooster
"Living independently, adjusting to new cultural environments, greater insight into the history and politics of the region"
Scarlett K Wellesley College
"I gained a better awareness and love for the multicultural realities that exist in our world and gained a lot of self confidence by speaking Arabic daily and stretching myself by traveling and living in a place so different from what I defined as familiar five months ago. In other words, now the medina in Rabat and the US feel b..."
Micah B Wellesley College
"I gained tons of confidence, felt that I grew a lot because of what I was exposed, gained new amazing friends, gained knowledge about a country I can go back and tour people around a city, learned the benefits of my citizenship and it was just another learning experience thats a must, in order to understand. "
Cristal H Brandeis University
"I learned so much about myself and about Madagascar's people and culture. I became more independent and learned what living in a third world country is like. I also learned about the biodiversity in Madagascar and was able to study lemurs in the wild. "
Kate C University of Tulsa
"I learned how to independently navigate a city in a language I do not know. I improved communication skills, I am less hesitant to reach out to people I would like to learn from or meet and I am more extraverted. I learned how to connect with people more easily/ readily, how to find commonalities and similar values. I learned ho..."
A student Wellesley College
"perspective, independence, understanding of wide wide world"
