Study Abroad with SIT Study Abroad
"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."

"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
"I learned a lot about Peruvian perceptions and lifestyle, as well as a lot about the environment in Perú (particularly about oil/gas companies in the rainforest, etc.). I also wouldn't trade the friendships and family I had for anything! "
andrea.foster.1297 Trinity University
"I learned so much about public health, specifically within the context of Afro-Brazilian culture. It was so fascinating to note how both Western medicine and the alternative Candomblé religion can work in conjunction to help patients or conversely conflict tremendously with each other. I absolutely feel in love with the Brazilia..."
Samantha G Trinity University
"I learned much about Swiss and Moroccan culture."
A student Wellesley College
"I had a wonderful connection with the other students on my program. It was worthwhile to visit this area of Brazil and get to travel around the Northeast. It was a worthwhile experience, but I would have wanted a program that gave us a better idea of safety, allowed us to voice complaints about host families, and gave us more co..."
A student Wellesley College
"My time abroad was worthwhile. I loved the people I was with and the people I met. However, I cannot get over the block that I am a student first, and as a student the program somewhat failed me. "
A student Middlebury College
"It was worthwhile. "
A student Brandeis University
"i gained so much. it was so incredible in many aspects. language acquisition was probably my most exciting and humbling experience throughout the process. i feel amazed by my ability to speak the language and understand the rhythms of the culture a little better because of it. "
A student Brandeis University
"Absolutely worthwhile. Learned to live independently, make big decisions all the time on my own. Learned to meet new people with different cultural norms and carry on conversation in a foreign language. Learned to take advantage of out of classroom learning and challenge myself."
A student Middlebury College
"It was definitely worthwhile in the sense that I was exposed to an entirely different culture and way of living."
A student Middlebury College
"I gained perspective on my privileged life, insight into one of the worlds most tragic conflicts (The Occupation of Tibet), friends that share my world view, exposure to the beauty and reality of rural Himalayan life. It was certainly worthwhile"
A student Brandeis University
