The world
Awaits
Study abroad is different with ISA. Yes, your students will go to class. But they can also explore the Sahara Desert’s geographical history from camelback. Climb a glacier while hearing how it naturally formed. Make pesto with their Italian host mom. Serve a Peruvian labor rights organization. Intern at a marine biology research center. Master the intricacies of Spanish. Live their dreams.
