Mackenzie Meckl, United Kingdom

My six weeks in London were filled with memories, spontaneous adventures and so many unique opportunities that I could never have imagined.

Megan Scott, United Kingdom

My experience abroad shaped me into a better version of myself and I don't think my words could ever truly describe what the experience did for me.

Vanesha Blackburn, Ghana

I have enjoyed every moment of Ghana since we have landed.

Brittany Moyer, Ireland

Ireland is an incredibly beautiful country in every aspect of the word.  Not only are the views breathtaking, but the Irish are some of the kindest, most generous people I have ever met.  I would go again in a heartbeat.

Jenna Wymer, Spain

During my time in Ourense, Spain I learned so much about myself and who I am as a teacher.

Alexandria Welsch, Netherlands

I taught at an International school with the Maastricht program. I was asked at the very beginning of my stay from an eight year old, "how many languages do you speak?" The young child I was conversing with was fluent in four different languages.

Sam Tonks, South Korea

My name is Sam Tonks and I studied abroad at SeoulTech University in South Korea. Being a smaller program, I was entirely surrounded by internationals at school, which allowed me to be more immersed in Korean culture.

Alan Carter, Spain

As a sophomore abroad for an academic year I never would have imagined how much of an impact study abroad would have on me. I am living the dream in Salamanca, Spain, which has become my home away from home.

Gretchen Pyscher, Ireland

For my Therapeutic Recreation Fieldwork I had the honor to work at Barretstown Camp in Ballymore Eustace, Ireland. This camp is for kids with serious illness and it gives them a break to just be kids again.

Kendra Pollard, Thailand

The four months that I spent in Thailand were full of adventure, excitement, and so many opportunities to grow. Thailand challenged me to really step out of my comfort zone and it pushed me to be comfortable with being uncomfortable.
