At IES Abroad, study abroad is our form of social justice and platform for positive change. And, enabling you to be uniquely you abroad is at the center of everything we do. More than 10 years ago, we created an innovative, sustained initiative that’s cultivated a multifaceted student body, which reflects the world’s rich diversity.

Join us for a special information session to learn more about our Initiative to Diversify Education Abroad (IDEA).

We know that when you study abroad, you expand what it means to be from the United States. You represent the rich, vibrant mosaic that makes up our culture. With you in mind, we’ve expanded access to study and internships abroad through millions in financial aid and scholarships, created original web and multimedia content that answers questions unique to who you are, and shared the stories of students from every social identity imaginable in their own words.

Meet us during this 30-minute Zoom session which will include a 20-minute presentation and 10 minutes of Q&A. Come as you are; attendees' cameras are off and muted, so join in your PJs or while on a walk—we’re cool with that!

You'll get an inside look at the culture of your potential host countries and explore additional options at prestigious partner universities. Complement your courses with cultural events, field trips, and optional community-based learning or a hands-on internship that's sure to boost your resumé!
