Dejanae to Austria (Study Abroad)

Donation protected
This Study Abroad program will give me the opportunity to combine earning college credit with seeing the world. the program provides the guidance and security necessary for such a first international experience. An added bonus – which becomes increasingly important – is the opportunity to list such an international venture in my resumé, which will make me stand out among other job applicants once I complete my studies and apply for my first job out of college.


In 2015 before graduation I will be embarking on a study abroad trip to INNSBRUCK, AUSTRIA! I  chose innsbruck because Innsbruck is a small city, easy to navigate, very safe and walkable, and student-friendly. (The University of Innsbruck has approx. 27,000 students.) Its setting, surrounded by mountains, provides an incredible backdrop and a myriad of recreational opportunities. Its Old Town brims with history and culture, and attracts visitors from all over the world. Innsbruck is very centrally located in Europe and provides easy access to other cultural centers of Europe. The Innsbruck Summer School offers its students ample opportunity to visit these places by scheduling classes Monday-Thursday (except Week One) and keeping weekends free for travel. Most students get Eurail Passes and use the train to visit destinations such as Paris, Rome, Florence, Venice, Vienna, Prague, Amsterdam and other highlights of Europe.

At the core of the Innsbruck International Summer School, though, are the courses, the students and the teachers. The program has upheld its academic rigor for decades and continues to do so through its dedicated faculty and staff. Learning, however, does not only occur in the classroom. Guided tours, excursions, field trips, and weekend travel all contribute to the learning experience.

You all know I am a poor college student that's loves to eat! Your donations go toward airfare, the program, books, some meals, and transportation in-country.

As always: More is preferred, but ANY is appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
