Read Story

Bella Childre in South Africa

The Middle East

Programs in Morocco, Jordan and Israel

Erum Jaffrey in Morocco

“As my semester abroad comes to an end and finals are around the corner, I am sad to be saying farewell to Morocco, which has challenged me, comforted me, mesmerized me, and most importantly, helped me grow as an individual.”

Read Story

Sofia Deak in Morocco

“As my first month in Morocco comes to an end, I am starting to be accustomed to life here. I feel more comfortable with the food, am able to have an entire conversation in Darija with my host mom (albeit with many mistakes, I am sure!), and easily know my way around Rabat.”
