Study Abroad with SIT Study Abroad
"I learned how to operate freely but respectfully in a culture completely different to my own. I also learned how to think critically about complex issues without taking sides. "
A student Middlebury College
"Definitely worthwhile. ISP helped me to figure out what I want to do with my career."
A student Brandeis University
"With SIT Panama, I grew in every imaginable way! Most notably, I have so much more confidence in my capabilities as a student, and as a thinker. Being a student is hard! I am more driven than ever to put myself into the work I am doing, and the work I will do after I graduate. My classmates and the people I was surrounded by whi..."
Macy A University of North Carolina - Asheville
"It was very worthwhile. I gained new perspectives and experienced many new unique things and environments."
John M Georgetown University
"I learned to be confident in navigating throughout a city on my own. I learned to be more confident in my spanish speaking skills. "
A student Wellesley College
"I learned what intellectualism, activism, and local organizing can look like outside the U.S. I also gained many parallels between social issues in the U.S. and Argentina, which enables me to put into use so much of the knowledge I gained from members of the community in Argentina. "
Jade Y Wellesley College
"Learned how to adapt to a culture very far from my own."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned a lot about new authoritarianism, illiberalism, and populism in Serbia, Austria, and Hungary and how the history of conflict from the Ottomans to WWI and II, to the Yugoslav Wars, all have immense influence on the region to this day, through memory politics, social norms, and more."
A student Wellesley College
"Totally worthwhile; I learnt alot of the language, more about how to navigate a new country, make friends in a short amount of time, be comfortable with change and constant travel, integrate into a new family and environment, learn about ME politics from firsthand experiences. "
Anoushka S Hamilton College
"It's hard to put into words what I gained. I could list practical skills, like experience in the field conducting research, language fluency, and cultural knowledge and familiarity, but the most important thing I gained was connections with people and places. This includes not just the Indonesians I met on the program, but my gr..."
Christopher M Brandeis University
"This is truly once in a lifetime. What you learn about the world around you and yourself will help you through the rest of your life."
Alekhya P University of South Florida

Linda P Pomona College
"Worthwhile. My ISP gave me many research connections. "
A student Middlebury College
"In addition to the tangible class knowledge, living and figuring out a city on my own proved to be a great learning experience. Budgeting, figuring out public transit, and exploring a new place is a form of learning on its own."
A student Duke University
"Yes, it was worthwhile! I am super happy that I can speak in Nepali now. I also gained completely new perspectives on being an American in a foreign country, the drawbacks of development aid efforts, INGOs, etc. "
A student Middlebury College
"I greatly improved my Spanish, and with the public health courses/activities my passion and future career goals were reaffirmed. I also learned a lot about myself living alone in a new city, as well as about relationships between friends, family at home, and my host family."
Ana T Rice University
"I became so much more comfortable speaking Spanish, but overall I think my biggest takeaway was how much my confidence grew. I interviewed strangers, lived with a new family, navigated a new city, made new friends, and experienced new cultures. "
Annessa I Bethel University
"I gained a lot of language skills. Yes it was worthwhile. "
A student Middlebury College
"I grew significantly in my Spanish ability. I also gained a sense of independence that I did not in 3 years of college in the United States. It was incredibly worthwhile and will inform how I think about what I want to do/where I want to live after college. "
A student Macalester College
"I would recommend this program because I loved how intimacy and specificity of the program. The small group was great because we were able to all get to know one another really well and the program staff were able to be attentive to our unique needs. The small program also allowed us to go on many excursions and visits that woul..."
A student Claremont McKenna College
"I learned a lot about the Pacific communities and the ways Samoa has changed over time. I learned about indigenous ways of living. I also gained new perspectives about religion, resilience, and social change. "
A student Middlebury College
"I learned more than I can even begin to express in all facets of my life: personal, professional, and academic. I learned that meriendas are a non-negotiable meal of everyday, that there is such a thing as drinking too much caffeine, that community and joy are essential to organizing, that care for myself must always come first,..."
Autumn Z Georgetown University
"I gained a fresh perspective from Australians, and also gained a new perspective on the field of sustainability. "
A student Middlebury College
"Not only did I learn a lot about the history of colonialism in South Africa, but I also learned so much about myself. I feel much more confident in who I am now and that was entirely shaped by the conversations I had with the people there. They all offered me so much insight and clarity on my personal path."
Nikita M Brandeis University
"I gained a strong relationship with my host family, a relationship I plan on continuing while I am in the US. I also gained many experiences in Tierra del Fuego and Antarctica, which let me understand the variance between different ecosystems, even if they are of the same biome type. I also learned a lot about the Spanish langua..."
