Past Review Cameroon: Challenging But Worth The Experience SIT Study Abroad: Cameroon - Development and Social Change

"I’m torn by this question because in some ways my study abroad experience was worthwhile, but in some ways it wasn’t. Having already traveled around Africa, I think if I was given the opportunity to choose again, I might’ve preferred an exchange program. For the amount of money my family paid, I wish I had more cultural immersio..."

Past Review I Had A Positive Experience Outside Of The Program. Fortaleza, Social Justice And Sustainable Development SIT Study Abroad: Reviews from Former Locations

"My experience with Brazil was incredible. I connected with the local culture, became fluent in Portuguese and made many friends. But this had nothing to do with the SIT program. The program was very frusterating, disorganized and many of the activities were an absolute waste of time. Our final projects were poorly monitored ..."

After coordinating meetings, listening to lectures and writ..."

Past Review The Global Health And Development Policy Program Is As Valuable As You Make It SIT Study Abroad: Switzerland - Global Health and Development Policy

"Culturally, this program was challenging because it was difficult to get to know local Swiss people in such a short period of time (3.5 mo.). It wasn't until the program was almost over that I was able to begin forming true friendships with Swiss people in my village. Academically, this program only touched the surface of many..."

Past Review Cameroon: An Amazing Leap Outside My Comfort Zone SIT Study Abroad: Cameroon - Development and Social Change

Past Review Sit Nepal SIT Study Abroad: Nepal - Tibetan and Himalayan Peoples

"It was definitely worthwhile and rewarding, but I did have certain complaints about the program.

I want to study anthropology at the graduate level, and having field research experience will definitely be an asset ..."

Tufts University
Past Review Learning By Living Sustainability With An Amazing Community : ) SIT Study Abroad: Australia - Sustainability and Environmental Action

"I loved learning about sustainability, I loved Australia, I loved our group.

Past Review Toulouse, France: Nothing To Lose, Everything To Gain. Toulouse, Language, Community, And Social Change SIT Study Abroad: Reviews from Former Locations

"I wish it had been longer. The only thing I missed for real was my family back home. I really got to see the French view, and understand their manners of thinking, as well as the stereotypes we have in the US on France - some are true, and I now understand how others developed. And, with all my notes and readings, I got to le..."
