Study Abroad with SIT Study Abroad
"On an academic level, I gained a deeper understanding of how Nepal fits into the broader Asian and global geopolitical context, as well as the forces that shape this. I also gained conversational proficiency in the Tibetan language. On a personal level, I made some unforgettable memories traveling and experiencing a beautiful cu..."
Dvij S Davidson College
"This program was very worthwhile. Learning by experiencing another culture is always very rewarding, the way of life and strong cultural identity in Samoa is very special."
Celeste B University of San Francisco
"¡Sípo! Reflecting on my time studying abroad in Arica, I can confidently say that it was worth every moment and effort. This experience has broadened my horizons, enhanced my academic and professional skills, and shaped me into a more globally aware and culturally sensitive individual. I am immensely grateful for the opportun..."
Karthik L University of Richmond
"Definitely worthwhile! Having the opportunity to learn in some of the world's most unique ecosystems and have "class" in the Wet Tropics and Great Barrier Reef was a fully memorable experience. Also, with the guidance of professionals in the field of conservation ecology, I was able to experience a deeper education, understandin..."
A student University of Mary Washington
"I learned a lot about navigating different dynamics in a cohort, as well as the local culture in Vietnam. My time abroad opened my perspective to new ideas that I would have not been able to have at my home institution. I also became more independent and started thinking in a different way about my life and what I wanted to do. "
Minh-Thy T Emory University
"SIT’s Public Health in Urban Environments Program was an incredible experience. Thanks to its emphasis on immersion, my Spanish improved dramatically. Their well-planned travel trips helped me see various, authentic sides of Argentina from public schools in rural areas to the Minister of Health in Buenos Aires. The staff were in..."
Amelia O Claremont McKenna College
"Yes! Confidence."
Caroline S Brandeis University
"I gained a lot of experience within the profession I want to pursue, but also within the culture of Argentina. This has really made me want to explore other countries and get to know them as well."
Jenavier T Denison University
"It was more than worthwhile. This is an experience I will remember forever. I learned how to love people I differ from in many ways. I discovered where my passions lie in my career path. And, I found a home in a whole new country. "

"Learned lots about myself and Nepal! Very worthwhile"
A student Middlebury College
"I learned about Australian social culture, the endemic species found in the Wet Tropics, experience working in the lab studying coral reproduction (my chosen field), and aboriginal culture. Additionally, I made friends from all across the United States who were on the program with me. Definitely a worthwhile experience! "
Merrill W San Diego State University
"The untraditional academic programing opens doors to conversation and connection with community members you otherwise would not meet enrolled directly with an Argentine university. I left this program feeling inspired and wanted to go back to Buenos Aires as soon as posible! "
Temma S University of Maryland - University College
"I cannot over emphasize how much I enjoyed this program. I made awesome friends, traveled to an amazing place, and learned so much from experiences I would be ignorant of otherwise. I obtained research experience at an Australian university and was able to develop new professional contacts. The memories I made here will not be f..."
A student Oberlin College
"I learned how to communicate with fellow scientists and researchers and conduct an independent project. I also became more comfortable in the field, and got experience in fieldwork I would never get at my home institution."
A student Scripps College
"It was beyond worthwhile! This program is transitioning to have more of a gender/sexuality focus in coming years which I highly recommend! "
Ray C Swarthmore College
"I gained increased language skills and comfort in communicating my needs, more confidence and independence navigating life in another country, and insight about my home culture and strategies for making social change."

"I feel like I gained a completely different perspective on the world. It's a cliche but it's true; this program is life changing!"

"Definitely worthwhile. Besides the academic stuff, I became a better cook, more confident in my ability to navigate unfamiliar surroundings, and learned to go with the flow."
A student Villanova University
"I am someone who also likes to have fun, explore, and connect with peers. During my semester with SIT, I was able to do all 3 without any troubles. Although it can be somewhat difficult to meet people in new places depending on language barriers, age demographics, or interests, the connections always start internally, with the s..."

"I gained networking skills and a better knowledge of the real-world application of international relations concepts. "
Thomas P The College of Wooster
"I gained a lot of independence and improved my research and time management skills. "
A student Middlebury College
"I of course gained things like better language abilities, a deeper understanding of human rights, etc. However, I think the most important thing I gained was a sort of personal growth. I went from being a perfectionist who hated being late to understanding that sometimes your bus is late or slow and yet the world will keep turni..."
Molly J Sewanee: The University of the South
"As a child of migrants, this program explained and uncovered many truths often concealed by our families, institutions, and government while creating a community of trust and support among the student and between the admin. It's truly a life-changing experience, not just for those interested in immigration advocacy but who value..."
Yesenia G Wellesley College
"My experience with SIT Panama exceeded my wildest expectations. I was drawn to the program as a hands-on learner passionate about environmental issues, but I could not have expected the level of immersion, cultural & natural beauty, and generally incredible experiences that I was exposed to. This program gave me a much more nuan..."
Benjamin D University of Richmond
