Three ways to study abroad next year and why you should!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Auburn chapter.

Interested in studying abroad next year? 

Here are a few ways to make your dreams a reality!

1. Visit the Study Abroad office at 243 Foy Hall. There are many university-sponsored program available, or the office can help you find a separate program that best fits your goals! To tour all of your options, keep checking the This Week @ AU emails for information about study abroad fairs to be hosted next fall!

2. Try traveling without having to commit to an entire semester by taking a tour! Contiki is the leader in vacation tours for ages 18-35. To make things even more fun, find a group of friends to take a tour together. Planning a group trip can also be a great way to spend some time together between graduating and moving!

3. Talk to your departmental head to see if your major offers and specific trips abroad or internship in another country possibilities!

To celebrate summer, traveling with no regrets and a fantastic new school year with tons of study abroad possibilities the HC Auburn Team made a video of our jet-setting experiences. Let us know what you think and comment below with any questions for team members!

Claire in the streets of Spoleto, a small city in Umbria, Italy. 

On the Spoleto Study Abroad trip, students were given the opportunity to explore Spoleto and areas nearby. Claire and some other classmates found this view of the Apennine Mountains. 

Many day trips were scheduled during the program. On one of the day trips, the students traveled to a small city nearby Spoleto, called Spello. Like Spoleto, Spello is hilly and has many winding stone streets as well as breathtaking views. 

One of the day trips during the study abroad program was to Tivoli, Italy, where the students toured Hadrian’s Villa as well as Villa d’Este.
