“Through ISA, I have been able to see the best Buenos Aires and Argentina have to offer. The ISA Staff have been amazingly helpful in offering recommendations for cultural events, restaurants, and museums outside of our official itinerary. They also encourage and support our trip across Argentina and to other South American countries. Without their support I don't think my time here would have been as fulfilling. They truly care for you and your experiences!”

Edith Bradley @edith_travels Buenos Aires, Argentina West Chester University

“This semester has been a life-changing experience for me. While being on the other side of the world, TEAN has helped me to feel at home by guiding me to make the most of this opportunity, where I’ve had the chance to expand my view of the world, meet lifelong friends, and face challenges that have helped me grow and know myself more.”

Overall, the four months I spent in London were life-changing. Although difficult at times, being in a new country taught me so many valuable lessons. I learned to be more independent and appreciative of myself, as well as learning how to navigate unfamiliar situations. When given the opportunity, I think everyone should study abroad in any capacity whether it be for a short period of time or a long time.”
