Let’s hear from Arianna, a senior psychology major who spent four months studying abroad in Barcelona, Spain. UIndy offers a variety of study abroad programs across six continents, giving students the opportunity to quite literally expand their horizons and experience diverse cultures firsthand. Tell us more, Arianna.

– Thanks, Alex, hello everybody. Growing up, I’ve always had a passion for traveling. As I began my college search, I was determined to find a school that would help me succeed in my future career, along with fulfilling my dream of studying abroad. When I saw that the University of Indianapolis offered multiple programs and resources to study abroad, I knew UIndy was right for me. This past semester, I was beyond blessed to get to spend the semester abroad. I was able to call Barcelona, Spain home for four months and travel all across Europe. I traveled to 7 countries in 22 cities. Not only was I seeing more of the world than ever before but I was also earning credits towards my degree. I enjoyed improving my Spanish and now I’ll forever have a second family in Spain. I was also able to meet locals and people from other American universities and made friendships that will truly last a lifetime. Studying abroad for a full semester is just one opportunity that the University of Indianapolis has to offer. We also have several trips during what we call spring term that lasts just a few weeks. No matter your comfort level, the University of Indianapolis makes expanding your worldview easier through study abroad. I know that studying abroad has forever changed my perspective on life and has lit a fire for traveling that will never die. If you’re interested in studying abroad, I can’t wait to tell you more about my experience and help you learn more about UIndy study abroad programs. I promise you won’t regret it. That’s my story, take it away, Alex.

– Wow, Arianna, your trip to Spain sounds incredible. I love that UIndy offers study abroad opportunities for everyone. From experience travelers to aspiring adventurers. I’m tempted to pack my suitcase and join you all on one of those spring term trips. Sounds incredible, thanks Arianna.
