Study Abroad with WorldStrides
"I learned so much from this experience, and mostly outside the classroom. Fully immersing yourself in a different culture is the most shocking and rewarding thing you can do for yourself. You truly learn how other people live, think, enjoy themselves, learn, and view others. I came back home with a different perspective on my ow..."
A student Central Connecticut State University
"I did so much self discovery and grew a lot as a person while abroad. I learned how to relax and not take life so seriously; I became more confident; I opened my mind and let go of the slight ethnocentric mindset I had had in the past; I got over my fear of cockroaches and bugs; I learned how to be more spontaneous and live in t..."
A student Trinity University
"This was my first time going abroad so it was really cool to be in, let alone LIVE in, another country. I liked seeing how other people lived and what their culture and customs are like. I really appreciate that I got to meet people from all over the world, not just Australia. I would say that this trip was certainly worthwhile...."
A student Temple University
"Met new people, saw new places, experienced a new culture. It was absolutely worth it and is something I will always treasure. It was a once in a lifetime experience. "
A student Brandeis University
"I learned about the cultures and what is normal in England and in Germany while I also learned about myself. It was absolutely worthwhile and I would go again in a heartbeat!!! "
Alexa H GAP Year Students
"I learned how to navigate in unfamiliar places. I was not very good at directions but when I was somewhere that was nowhere near home I forced to learn and teach myself. Very worthwhile!"
Kristen S University of Kentucky
"Language experience, independence, friends and contacts"
A student Western Washington University
"I gained perspective. It was a fantastic experience."
A student University of Hartford
"It did end up setting me back a semester from graduating, but it was so much fun that I don't mind and it was very worthwhile. I'm not sure I learned a lot of new things about being abroad because I had already lived for a year in another country before I went to Australia. I gained an experience that I will cherish :). "
Kathryn F Indiana University - Bloomington
"Going to Barcelona was the best decision I have ever made in my life. I gained a sense of independence that I had never felt before and a passion to explore the world. I would go again in a heart beat."
Rachel L University of Mary Washington
"Basically how to adjust to a new lifestyle. I do not regret doing it"
A student Bentley University
"I learned how to survive on my own in a foreign country for an extended period of time. I also gained experience in traveling to places around the world. My experience abroad was absolutely worth it. It was the most amazing thing I've ever done in my life and TEAN had a lot to do with it."
A student University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh
"It was incredible semester with amazing memories I will keep for the rest of my life. Say yes to everything and try it all - you'll have so much fun and learn many new things. It was one of the most worthwhile experiences of my life. "
Natalie C Lasell College
"- best experience of my life -perspective on life changed -have the ability to live simplier (or out of a backpack for weekend trips) -importance of studying languages -appreciation for everything at home the list can go on and on"
Danielle F University of Arkansas - Fayetteville
"Going abroad was an absolutely unbelievable experience. Going abroad changes you. Living and experiencing another country's culture gives you a whole new outlook of your culture, and gives you different perspective of the world. I learned more about the world in one semester abroad than I have in my entire college career. I als..."
Cody Z University of Iowa
"I learned that the world is a large, encompassing place, and that worrying about small things is useless. I learned that to be true to myself I might have to work harder, but I'll be happier. I learned to keep my feet closer together and dance with energy when I move. I learned how to have conversations. "
djfbeaumier University of Belgrano
"I learned how to interact in an international context and got a lot of vital traveling experience. Gained a ton of friends that I will cherish for the rest of my life. 100% worthwhile. "
A student University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh
"It was worthwhile, I learned about culture. I just found them to be more Americanized than I'd hoped for, as far as a study abroad."
A student University of Maine at Orono
"Going into this experience I never could have imagined how much I would end up gaining from it. I assumed I would see amazing sights, meet great people and try new things. I never realized though that in a quick four months I would find a new home, make friends that feel like family and do things I never thought I could do. Stud..."
A student Quinnipiac University
"I learned that not only do I have the ability to live on my own, I can do it in a foreign country. Making friends of all different cultures was fun and rewarding, and I was able to learn and understand the intricacies of different cultures, learnin styles etc. Overall, I could not be happier"
A student Bentley University
"People who have studied abroad come back and say they've been forever changed. But the truth is, it's hard to put that change into words or perspective for those who haven't had the experience of completely throwing themselves into another world countless miles away from familiarity. I learned to trust myself on things more and ..."
Kaylie A University of Dayton
"Because I went out and steered away from the program, I got involved with many local and international people who went to different schools, worked in different areas, and made my experience more enjoyable. I grew a lot as a person and met people that I will keep in my life forever. "
A student University of Hartford
"I learned heaps about myself and a lot about other cultures. It was more than worthwhile."
Cincy.2014 University of Cincinnati
"I gained more experience than words could fit on this page! I was brought out of my comfort zone and learned how to expand my horizons so that I could experience more and not limit myself. I was immersed in a culture completely foreign to me and embraced every moment of it. I do not regret a single moment of my trip and TEAN hel..."
A student University of Maryland - College Park
"I learned how to be independent and to appreciate the outdoors in every way. New Zealand truly is an Eden and you MUST experience the country to get everything out of the study abroad experience. So many study abroad students would stay in their home cities and party on weekends and never get the real experience. If I could give..."
