Study Abroad with SIT Study Abroad
"Programs in multiple different countries help you gain perspective on what you're learning, on culture in general, and on your own home culture. "
A student Wellesley College
"Going to the international organizations and speaking with experts in the field of international law was my favorite part. I feel like I learned so much about how Europeans view the US, which was extremely important to me. "
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned about the Chilean health care system and about traditional methods of medicine. My Spanish improved more than anything. I think the lessons I learned outside of the classroom were the most important. I learned about the importance of challenging myself and I learned about how to communicate in another language."
Zoe T Tulane University
"I feel so much more independent and self-sufficient. Also, my confidence in my language skills really shot up, as well as my hesitation in speaking it. "
Helen F Trinity University
"ABSOLUTELY WORTH WHILE! I learned so much through DOING and SEEING. Although the traditional academic setting (or traditional American academic setting) wasn't present, I was able to visit various UN organizations, the WHO, remote villages in North Africa (Morocco), etc. Every day was vastly different, yet enriching. I learned t..."
Caroline S Villanova
"I learned so much more of the language and the culture. I was able to see outside of the developed city of Buenos Aires and how others live, such as those in los campos. I also was able to learn about their government and the extreme sides of the political spectrum and beliefs down there. "
A student Providence College
"I learned about adjusting to new experiences and stepping out of my comfort zone."
Elizabeth B Middlebury College
"I gained more self confidence and independence. I also feel like I learned a unbelievable amount of information on rainforest, corals reefs and life in Australia. This program was 100% worthwhile."
A student Middlebury College
"I cannot fully describe what I learned in words. One must have to go on the program and experience it for themself to completely understand what I learned from my experience on this program. I learned an immense amount about Chilean culture, family, and of course Spanish. I learned how to live and integrate into a language and c..."
A student Brandeis University
"Absolutely, if only for the Spanish language skills I acquired and the tools to conduct independent research."
Christopher C Fordham University
"I learned that study abroad programs are really catered towards a particular student. I also learned that a lot of Americans are ignorant about global issues regardless of how much they learn inside the classroom. This particular study abroad program really tried to integrate the American students into its culture and I also saw..."
A student Wellesley College
"It was absolutely worthwhile. I was able to get contacts for future employment at international organizations."
elise.voorhis The University of Texas at Austin
"It was definitely worthwhile. The kind of stories I heard, the experiences I had and the people I met made all the difference. I was really impacted by the way public policy decisions made years ago still affects people today on a very personal level. As a poli sci major, this was an important concept for me so that I could unde..."
Nancy N Wellesley College
"I was able to compare large issues through small experiences. I learned Wolof, which they speak in Senegal and have been able to use this many times in other parts of the world when I meet Senegalese vendors. I learned the importance of informal and formal settings. I learned to question everything. I learned to let people speak..."
David O Providence College
"I learned a lot about myself, how I handle situations, why I get frustrated and when I get happy. I learned to appreciate little successes and little instances in my day. I gained an entirely new perspective on another culture and OF COURSE IT WAS WORTHWHILE! Times a million :)"
A student Providence College
"I gained a better understanding of Vietnam- historically, economically, and culturally. I learned so much about the diversity of Vietnamese culture, and I am glad I explored the country of my heritage through this program. I personally gained a stronger connection and a newfound love for Vietnamese people and culture."
Christine_7485 Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about myself and self-directed learning, which I consider 2 super-important life concepts. I learned about Caribbean culture in Panama, how to comfortably talk to strangers when small-talk is appropriate, and met awesome environmental students from across the country with whom I shared fun, funny, and even sad ti..."
Nicholas M Brandeis University
"Very worthwhile, learned not only about a new culture and a new way of life but got serious biological research experience under my belt."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned to be more independent, my French improved a lot, and I became well-acquainted with French culture. The program fulfilled all of my expectations and I would do it again in a second."
A student Brandeis University
"I got an amazing insight on a culture and people and lived in a country that is constantly and rapidly developing everywhere."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned that when things get hard, the best thing is to keep going and put yourself as deeply in the thick of things as possible. I realized that I could have observed Chile and my host family or I could jump in, make a lot of mistakes, but also get so much more out of it. This program was incredibly worthwhile and special. I ..."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned so much about the indigenous populations of Chile from within the populations. It was an experience that not just any tourist, or even Chilean, could have. I learned a lot about myself and my ability to cope with unfamiliar situations. It was completely worthwhile. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned so much, not from classes and lectures, but from living in and experiencing South Africa. Living with host families did a lot for my understanding of the various cultures of South Africa."
A student Brandeis University
"Independence. Increased my love for Africa and the culture. It was completely worth while and I would do it 10x over. I gained new friends from across the country and experiences no one else can say they have ever had. There are memories only I hold and they are priceless."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned a ton, its impossible to put into this box. Yes, worthwhile."
Ryan B Trinity University
