Wellesley College is a program provider offering 2 abroad programs. Programs offered include Study Abroad abroad programs in 2 countries such as Iceland and France.
Students who wish to study abroad may choose from more than 180 programs.
About 45% of Wellesley College juniors elect to study abroad for a semester or a year. Motivation for study abroad is as diverse as our student population. Many students study abroad to perfect a foreign language, or to conduct field research, or to gain a new perspective on their major. Others seek the opportunity to study in a major research university, live in an urban setting, or to experience life in a developing country. Whatever your goals, the Office of International Study wants to work with you to identify the most appropriate host university or study abroad program for an experience that will challenge you and provide you with the opportunity to grow as a global citizen.

Katherine P Wellesley College
"I would not trade my time abroad for anything. I had left with the intention of becoming fluent, and for all intents and purposes, I now am. No study abroad program and no foreign country will be perfect, but WIA and France came pretty close. I would love to go back to France again and explore the towns and regions that I was no..."

Stephanie L Wellesley College
"Yes!!!! I learned so much about myself during this year abroad, from my personal learning style to how I actually do like vegetables if they are fresh and locally grown! I also learned so much about French culture and way of life, and I have really learned to slow down and enjoy what I am doing each day. I was also able to remov..."
April Y Wellesley College
"Europe is awesome. I learned more and had more fun while traveling in Europe, and would do more traveling if I did it again. I'd also be more out-going and force myself to make more (French) friends. With this program, a lot depends on the people you're with. I feel like I understand the French fairly well- and don't necessaril..."
Lauren C Wellesley College
"It helped me change my perspective on enjoying life as well as appreciate my US college experience"

Haley3 Wellesley College
"It was wonderful. I became fluent in my foreign language, I saw interesting things and met interesting things and fully ENJOYED life. "
Leah H Wellesley College
"I am happy that I studied abroad because I learned a lot about the culture and myself. I feel like I now understand what it feels like to be out of your element and trying to figure everything out.

Katie S Wellesley College
"It was definitely worthwhile. I accomplished all my goals."
Kiley W Wellesley College
"Yes! Travelling was a dream! I really learned about living with other people, too. Having a roommate in your own apartment and living in your own apartment is really not the same as a dorm. I think I really learned the responsibilities of real life. Culturally, travelling really opened my world, and I loved it!"
