Â鶹´«Ã½

Spending my junior year spring semester studying at University College London (UCL) was honestly pretty fantastic.

Studying abroad in Paris sounds like something straight out of a rom-com, right? The Eiffel Tower, baguettes, Paris Fashion Week—what’s not to love?

Walking through the streets of Cambridge, gothic spires pierce the gray sky and stone parapets rise all around you. 

Studying abroad was one of the most challenging, but also one of the most rewarding, experiences I’ve gone through as a student with a disability.

Â鶹´«Ã½ students studying in Paris and Edinburgh are among 96 Sagehens studying away from their home campus fall semester through the College's International and Domestic Programs Office. There is a resurgence of interest in off-campus study.

As a junior, Kiya Henderson ’23 was on the fence during fall semester 2021 about doing Study Away from the Â鶹´«Ã½ campus.

My college experience and my life has become infinitely richer and more rewarding to me in so many ways since I stepped on that plane. I think everyone should try it if they are able to!

If you have already seriously considered studying abroad, you have probably imagined the possibility of a homestay with a local family.

When I was applying to colleges, I was confident that I wanted a small college experience. I didn't even consider colleges with more than a few thousand students, and I ended up at a school (that I love) of 1,600 students.
