SIT Study Abroad

Ghana was incredible! The warm staff, delicious food, and stunning landscapes made my experience unforgettable. I really enjoyed the experiential learning aspect of the program, as getting to interact with locals, go to museums, and travel around the country deepened my understanding of Ghanaian culture in a way a classroom wouldn't be able to.

I learned so much in this program! I was fully immersed in Indian culture with my homestay and incredible academic staff. I gained so much knowledge and expertise in public health in a local and global context. It was the most rewarding semester of college I’ve ever had! I’m so glad I got this experience and I would 100% recommend this program to others.

I found this study abroad program to be an invaluable experience that I can carry over to both my academic and professional endeavors. It also reinforced my values of inclusivity and compassion, encouraging me to explore more into humanitarian action as a field and even intern with other non-profit organizations in the future. Our academic advisor, Dr. Ashraf Alqudah, was an amazing mentor; very knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind. Amman as a city was also such a cool experience. It was my first time in the region so I loved becoming familiar with the local customs and people. One thing that I think could have been better though was the internship placement. Many of my peers had great placements, but for me personally I wish it was more structured and that there was a translator since many of the staff only spoke Arabic.
