Technology Study Abroad Programs in England

Truly I could not tell you what I would have changed about my experience with AIFS. The travel package was so nice, I can book a plane ticket easy peasy, but I was concerned about landing and trying to figure out the tube. They made it so I didn't have to worry about a thing. The accommodations were so nice, and well located. The first day they showed us the route to get from our accommodations to our classroom which I really appreciated. The staff were all so kind, helpful, and accommodating. The experiences they booked for us were so fun and a good balance of catered experiences and free time for you (and friends) to explore London on your own. The professor was amazing! He was incredibly knowledgeable and kind. I truly would not change a thing about my experience and I cannot recommend it enough! For this particular program, they took us to West End musicals, Oxford, Top Secret Comedy Club and out to a few dinners! During class we would walk around London to immerse ourselves in the city, we explored Kensington, the East End, Bond Street, Westminster, Big Ben, the Churchill War Rooms and more!

I had such a great time at Lite Regal Education Summer School 2025 The Intensive English course really helped my English improve a lot in such a short time. I also met so many new friends from different countries everyone was super kind and friendly.

I chose AIFS Abroad because I wanted a program that combined strong academic support with cultural experiences. I joined the London program, and it exceeded my expectations in every way. The pre-departure team guided me through each step, answering questions quickly and making me feel prepared before leaving. In London, the staff were welcoming and approachable, always checking in to make sure we were doing well. The housing was safe and well-located, which made daily life so much easier. I especially loved the excursions and cultural activities—they helped me explore London and other parts of the UK in ways I wouldn’t have managed on my own. What stood out most was the community I built. I met people who became close friends, and the experience gave me more independence and confidence. Professionally, I gained skills in adaptability and communication that I know will help me in the future. I’d recommend AIFS Abroad to anyone looking for a program that balances academics, culture, and support in a truly meaningful way.

Studying abroad was an exhilarating and eye-opening experience. It brought on many trials, but I am proud of overcoming my hesitations and facing them head-on. I benefitted from international travel by learning to become more independent and self-reliant. I’ve commuted to college every year, so it was my first time living away from home. It challenged me to be more decisive and outgoing. Because of this, I made great relationships and became more self-assured. Even navigating public transportation helped me to be more vigilant and mindful. Although I saw significant self-improvement, other aspects caused some difficulties. Before going to London, I had frequent contact with ISA to ensure I would have consistent therapy and someone to administer my allergy shots. I was confident and felt at ease knowing there would be support for my mental health and physical health. However, there were complications with my therapy and shots, which hindered me from receiving treatment until the end of the semester. Ultimately, I advise incoming study abroad students to ensure specific measures are in place before traveling to their designated country. Hence, they are guaranteed support for their mental and physical health. Despite these setbacks, I am thankful for my experience studying abroad and the chance to live in London. The city is full of activities and opportunities, so I encourage students to fully immerse themselves in the culture and meet people from different backgrounds. It broadens your perspective and truly changes your life!

ISA was an amazing program which made my transition easy and smooth! I loved my time in London studying at Kingston University. The program offered so many amazing day trips, and great traveling tips! I will always remember my time with ISA and in London!

It was a great study abroad experience for anyone whose interested in going to the UK to pursue their education. Nice weather, good Turkish, chicken shops and convenient stores to buy essentials. Exploring the multiple sites that the UK has to offer and meet a lot of great people and made some connections. Using public transportations like the underground tube, double decker busses, riding Lime bikes around the city and walking around the area. Overall, I really enjoy spending time in the country and hope to explore outside of London, besides Brighton and Windsor Castle.

I loved studying abroad in London. It's a city full of history, experiences, and views that I can't wait to go back and see! I took classes that were associated with my degree and ones that were not, which was nice because I was able to have a varied educational experience and understand how their education system compared to the one I was used to. ISA hosted excursions to places such as Windsor Castle that were a lot of fun. They also held orientation and pre-arrival information sessions which made the transition much easier. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to study abroad!

Going abroad to London with CEA CAPA was an amazing experience! All the staff was very helpful and effective, they had everything ready for your arrival and they kept in touch during the whole program. The classes I took were amazing, most of them had a lot of field trips related to class content so it was very fun and engaging. I also did an internship abroad which helped me immerse in the culture and grow professionally and personally. London is an awesome multicultural city full of things to do and learn. My experience abroad with this program was amazing!

Interning while in London was wonderful. The internship team was helpful and supportive. Navigating a new country is extremely difficult, especially when you also take on an internship, but the team at CEA CAPA made it a breeze. I had a different internship placement originally but it conflicted with my class schedule and luckily the team in London was able to re-assign me. It was a life-changing experience and extremely rewarding, one that I am so grateful to have added to my résumé. I can’t recommend this program enough!

Hi Kyra! Thanks for reviewing and recommending your internship abroad from London.

My time abroad was absolutely amazing! I was able to meet so many people of different ethnic backgrounds through my entire time in London. I had such a great experience learning the culture and way of life in a new country. ISA supplied great opportunities to tour the different parts of London and neighboring cities, which was great for those students who didn't get out much. Being a student apart of the ISA program, we were offered the chance to make money while abroad by becoming a social media influencer, as well a becoming blogger. All around, I had a beautiful experience which taught me so much about myself and opened me up to new perspectives and understandings. Forever grateful for beingan alumni of this program x.

Studying abroad in London with ISA truly changed my life. It was an eye opening experience into different cultures and ways of life. With the way the program was set up I had the opportunity to make lifelong friends, explore the city and even other countries. My experience was so good that I studied abroad twice in London and each was a whole new experience of it own. I am now a strong advocate for study abroad as I can already see the benefits it offers

Studying abroad in London was my first time in another country and it was truly everything I could've hoped for and more! I took a Global Shakespeare course and it was surreal to be in the country of Shakespeare and to learn his work while being immersed in the culture. As part of our course, we took a trip and got to see a play at the Globe. I had an ample amount of free time outside of classes to explore London and got to visit landmarks such as Buckingham Palace and the London Eye. I constantly talk about this experience to anyone who will listen! I'm currently in a field working with high school students and always advocate that they should look into studying abroad while they're in college!

It is cliche to say, but my study abroad experience in London was one of the best few weeks of my life! I had always dreamed of going to London, and ISA was so helpful in assisting me in choosing a program and class that satisfies a degree requirement. London is a melting pot of people, cultures, and languages. Wherever I went, I felt I got out of my comfort zone and learned something new and interesting about our world. I was pleasantly surprised by ISA's involvement in my experience studying abroad. Not only did I know the staff by name and they knew me, but they were all so helpful in making sure I felt comfortable every step of the way before, during, and after my program. One of my favorite parts of the program was the various excursions ISA provided. From visiting Windsor to seeing Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors play; there was a great amount of activities to do with ISA while also taking my own time and getting to experience the city for myself. I 100% recommend ISA and specifically this program! The people and memories that I made while abroad are some that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

My time at Oriel College created some of my favorite memories. I still think about all the fun things my group did and the material we learned. It truly was something I could not recommend enough. If you are looking at studying abroad, ISA was a great resource and would highly recommend.

I absolutely loved this program. They gave us the experience of taking a class at the University of Oxford, as well as lots of planned events for us to explore the culture and city. There were 2 events every day, plus class, so it kept us busy but we also had some down time/free time to do whatever we wanted. Everyone at ISA and Oxford was extremely welcoming and hospitable. I would do this trip again if I could, and I highly recommend anyone who’s able to do it!

I thought I didn't like learning about history. However this experience taught me so much and I have learned so many things! I also love the people I met and the experiences I got to have! And the ISA group was so amazing and so helpful!

My study abroad adventure in London was hands down the best trip ever. From impromptu picnics in Hyde Park to late-night discussions with fellow students over spicy curry in Brick Lane, every day was a new highlight. The experience not only broadened my perspective but also introduced me to a diverse network of friends and professionals. London became more than a city; it became a hub of memories that will forever shape my personal and professional journey.

I had the best time ever! London had so much to offer and I loved exploring it. AIFS definitely helped foster this process, with the affordable day trips as well. I loved every minute of it! Have recommended the program to multiple people back in the states.
