Study Abroad
American High School Academy’s Study Abroad Programs give you the opportunity to experience the world as your classroom.
Studying abroad can change the way you see the world
Experience the world as your classroom
Rather than picking things up from books and the internet, personally navigating a new landscape will open your eyes to culture, history, a new language or even your heritage.
Studying abroad opens the door to personal growth and discovery too. As you learn to say “hello” in a foreign language, make friends and try new foods, you build confidence and self-reliance and stretch the limits of your comfort zone.
Who are Study Abroad Programs for?
As a new college student, you want to venture out, build confidence, participate and learn by doing, seeing and traveling.
Maybe you want to study marine biology and rescue birds from oil spills, but you live in a non-coastal state. Or maybe you are trying to understand history and archaeology from an urban jungle.
Understanding new environments, languages and cultures builds an appreciation for what you have and where you come from. It also opens your eyes to what is going on in the global landscape. If you want to open new avenues, academically and personally, call American High School Academy and see what the world has to offer.
Benefits of study abroad
Study Abroad Programs are experiential education. Picture the world as your classroom, with each destination a new interactive textbook: instead of reading, you experience history, art, culture, fashion and food in real time.
Maybe you have already traveled overseas and had a taste of exploring a foreign city, a sandy beach or a historical landmark. If you are looking for another opportunity to travel, learn about new countries and connect with new people, studying abroad is a great option.
The what, where, when and why
Plan your Study Abroad Program
Study Abroad Programs are available around the world. Interested but a little intimidated about where to start? No worries. American High School Academy is here to partner with you and help you get started.
What do you want to study?
Programs are available in many subjects. Consider studying music in Vienna, technology in Japan, art history in Italy, fashion design in Paris or business in London. Or try a Spanish immersion program: learning a second language is a fantastic way to strengthen the brain.
Programs are available for elective credits and to support your major or minor.
Where do you want to study?
Country options are vast, and each location has its own nuances. Research each country you are considering so you choose one that fits your personality and lifestyle.
Exploring what a country is really like before you choose it helps make your program a success for your personal growth.
When do you want to go?
Knowing when you can actually get away (spring? summer?) helps you focus on your options.
For example, using your spring break to learn about the rainforest in Brazil or to learn French in France might be a great way to spend your time.
Why consider studying abroad?
Beyond what you study, you open up new possibilities for personal growth and discovery. Whatever you decide to do in your work life, confidence, self-reliance and communication skills are assets.
Navigating new surroundings is an experience that can help you land a dream job and learn the ropes of a new position. Studying abroad puts you in a new category of job candidate: the international, cultured, bilingual, self-assured student.
