Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."Since coming home, I've been better with money and budgeting. I've been more empathetic to those in new experiences and culturally different from me.

Kelsi Maddock Colby-Sawyer College
"My experience abroad helped me in so many ways. It helped me be more confident with who I am, and taught me how to and the best ways travel to different places, it helped me branch out and make new friends, and most importantly it taught me that there is a big world beyond my small town. Going abroad is an experience like no ot..."
Emily W Colby-Sawyer College
"I learned a lot about myself and what I am capable of doing, which is much more than I thought. I gained confidence and a new perspective. Traveling to the other side of the world made "my world" seem pretty small. Deciding to study abroad was hands-down the best decision that I have ever made."
A student Colby-Sawyer College
"I not only became so much more confident in my Spanish, I also became so much more confident in myself. Traveling alone really forces you out of your comfort zone and makes you be in charge. It's exactly what I needed and now I honestly feel like I can do anything."

Yulia P Colby-Sawyer College

Lesley F Colby-Sawyer College
"This experience was very worthwhile. It is a time that I will always look back on and say, those were a few of the best months of my life. I feel even more culturally diverse at the end of this trip and more aware of how similar some of the situations are back home to whats going on here. I rated it 4/5 due to the fact that I ha..."

It also helped me re-establish my deepest passi..."
Andrea C Colby-Sawyer College
"Study Abroad was the best experience of my life. Like I said, I'm applying to do my Master's at UQ because I enjoyed the area that much. I am planning to study law there and live there for a few years after. Brisbane felt like home. "
Christina G Colby-Sawyer College
"It is very hard to explain to people how incredible my experience was. You really just have to experience it. The best thing is to go with a completely open mind and integrate into their culture and stay open to new experiences. Because of my time there, I am going to try to do my graduate work back in England."
Karrie W Colby-Sawyer College
"Definitely yes."
Suraj M Colby-Sawyer College
"Yes it was, but in many ways I wish that I had gone to Italy instead because I didn't really enjoy france. The Italy group was much more involved in the country. They had to go into the city to go to class. We had to walk down a flight of stairs. I rated it a 4 because I did love it and I would definitely study abroad again, but..."
