Study Abroad with WorldStrides
"I learned so much about myself, Thailand, and SE Asia throughout my experience abroad. I have never established such deep connections with friends so quickly. It was very easy to find home in Chiang Mai. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming and it completely opened my eyes to a different way of life and was such a positive chan..."
Margaux T Eugene Lang College - The New School for Liberal Arts
"Independence and new life lessons. It was definitely worthwhile to learn about myself."
A student Saint Leo University
"I learned how to live independently on my own. It really taught me what it means to "survive" when you live on your own and have to take care of yourself on your own. I think my entire experience was worth while and I encourage anybody who's thinking about studying abroad to do it. It teaches you a lot about the world and about ..."

"How to be independent in traveling and how to survive on my own. Yes it was worthwhile."
Rebecca Hugh Saint Leo University
"I learned how to adapt to a new environment and challenged myself to be more extroverted and brave. "
Maire Klein California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo
"I learned about other cultures, how to travel on my own, and how to budget my money."
A student University of Hartford
"I learned so much about myself as well as Australia as I was abroad. I was able to learn about local culture while meeting tons of new people! It was a great time to really just live life and enjoy all that Australia could provide! Going abroad was so worthwhile and I'm glad that I did not pass up the opportunity to do so! "
A student University of San Francisco
"I learned about what it takes to live in a place completely different then what I am familiar with. My experience taught me how to adapt and communicate with individuals who grew up in a different way than I did in Southern California. I also better understand the value of diversity!"
Lauren Rezak California Lutheran University
"I gained a better world view and perspective of the world from a different country/culture. Very worthwhile to have the experience immersed in a new foreign place."
Jennifer Rossi University of Massachusetts Amherst / UMass
"TEAN's courses expanded on topics rarely discussed in the United States and utilized the country around it for hands-on lesson, making going to class enjoyable and exciting. Not only am I more aware of different cultures and lifestyles, but more accepting and willing to try new ideas. I am now able to reflect on so many wonder..."
Abby Milza High Point University
"Traveling abroad taught me to step out of my comfort zone. While in New Zealand, I did things I never thought I would do- from bungee jumping to solo road trips. This wasn't always easy, but completely worth it!"
Rachel Semple California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo
"Through my experience abroad, I learned how to live internationally and outside of my comfort zone. As a fairly cautious person, I grew to learn the art of taking (smart and safe) risks, like going for a new club meeting alone to make friends or on overnight backpacking trips. I gained valuable and enlightening insight on the cu..."
Joanna University of Maryland - College Park
"Studying abroad helped me to be more responsible. I had to learn budgeting and balancing travel with school work. I was able to see places that I'd never thought I'd be able and my expectations were exceeded for how beautiful they were. I 100% think studying abroad was worthwhile and I would do it again in a heartbeat if I had t..."
Kaitlin Carroll California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo
"My time abroad gave me the most memorable months of my life. I learned so many skills in independence, financial planning and travelling! I can now travel anywhere with confidence and excitement. I can walk into a room of strangers and have no issue introducing myself and joining a conversation. I now have friends across the pla..."
Kelsey Young University of Rhode Island
"I gained independence more than anything else. And I learned how to communicate more effectively. Most my good friends and I on the trip rubbed off on each other and now I think I'm a better person because of them. "
Emelie Gosselin University of Hartford
"I already knew that I had a passion for traveling before I studied abroad, but once I studied abroad it really just reminded me that traveling is my favorite thing to do. Studying abroad allowed me to visit places in the world that I have dreamt of going to, but never thought I would have been to at this age in my life. Studying..."
Hailey Praska University of Iowa
"It was definitely worthwhile! I learned to be more confident and independent, I was basically fluent in Spanish while down in Costa Rica, I met amazing friends, and I tried so many new foods and activities! "
Allison Lease Bethany Lutheran College
"I gained some basic knowledge of the Chinese language and some knowledge of Chinese culture as well. This experience was most definitely worthwhile."
Gianna Gronowski Rollins College
"I seriously improved my Chinese just by living in China for the fall semester. Not only was I more independent and creative getting around, I did so in Chinese. Many students speak English, but in almost all social interactions off campus, Chinese is the "Lingua Franca". It was worthwhile."
Jesse Paul Berea College
"I learned to be a kinder person. From living in Chiang Mai for a semester and traveling to a few countries in Southeast Asia, I was met with a kindness and unselfishness I have never witnessed before. I learned to listen, say yes and treat others with kindness and laughter. I learned to walk slow, embrace the heat and always smi..."

Ana St. Louis University of Hartford
"I learned about Spanish and Catalan culture and improved my Spanish speaking ability. "
Caitlin Haug Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
"Yes"
Kara Ormsbee University of Hartford
"I was able to learn about taking a chance and going somewhere unfamiliar with new people. I made so many friends and had the experience of a lifetime. It was absolutely worthwhile and if I could start the whole journey over tomorrow, I would without hesitation. "
Jessica Sidhu University of Maryland - College Park
"I learned that there is strong Asian influence in Sydney and that Australia's history is very similar to the States. "
A student University of Hartford
