Study Abroad Checklist

Whether you’ve been dreaming of studying abroad for forever or just investigating if it’s possible, here’s a step-by-step guide to successfully studying abroad.

"While visiting Inuyama Castle in Nagoya with the International Center of my host school we stopped by a shrine. At most shrines, people can buy wooden placards to write their dreams in hopes that they will come true. All of these have messages of love and relationships, mostly marriages. The one in the foreground roughly translates to “I want to marry my amazing boyfriend!! In the hopes that that will happen <3”"
Returning Home

Staying Involved in Study Abroad

When you return home from studying abroad, you might be looking for ways to stay involved or continue your international experience. Whether you're looking to donate time, or make a monetary donation for future students, contributing in any way will help inspire others to study abroad.

"A few kilometers or so below the Akosombo dam on Lake Volta, locals fish from canoes with line and hooks in the dark deep waters lying intermittent to the green hills.  My first journey in Ghana brought me here for a relaxing getaway.  From sunup these men could be seen on these waters tirelessly trying to bring in fish."

Tips for Cultural Immersion

Many study abroad participants see the sites and take photos but leave without a deeper knowledge of their host culture. On your ISEP program, you'll have the chance to create a different kind of experience. ISEP programs give you the opportunity to become a member of the host community, rather than an observer.
