ISA made my first trip overseas an incredible journey
September 29, 2019by: Alexander Azar - United StatesI chose the Euroscholars program through the ISA company to study abroad because I was impressed by the academic opportunities offered. I was not disappointed. I was able to work directly with a professor and conduct a thesis paper. I was given a great residency with friendly staff that helped me adjust to living on my own. Leuven, Belgium been a university town for about 600 years and has a historic and current international community that opens doors globally. I became with people from all six inhabited continents. Everyday I was able to ride my bike past castles and thriving communities. I recommend this program
My lovely Belgium
January 30, 2018by: Matt - ChicagoSo quaint yet not quaint at all. I fell in love with this city and everyone in it. ISA helped me every step of the way. My program advisor became one of my best friends and my host moms were caring, loving, and a joy to be around. Wouldn't change a thing.
