Off-campus study

I fell in love with travel, and learning about culture... but I became someone who wanted to be a part of the culture... I have been looking for opportunities to move back there ever since I left. It changed my life, my heart.

—Past participant, Florence Program

I really like how understanding, open minded, and accepting my host family was. They gave me freedom to participate in activities that I was interested and to explore parts of India on my own. I had some very intellectual conversations with them considering culture and other topics that provided me with insight from someone with a different background from me.

—Past participant, India Studies
