Studying abroad truly made me want to become a global citizen. I want to travel to as many places and experience as many cultures as I can.

Tell us about the most interesting academic component or course you took on this program.
Learning about eastern religions (Taoism, Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism) was probably the most interesting for me. It was interesting to look at the religion and find comparisons between my own religion and the ancient religions there.

Unique Aspect
A unique aspect of my programs location was that we didn't stay in one location inside of China- we traveled to multiple cities and it allowed us to experience various cultures within one country.

Why Study Abroad
I would tell them that this trip changed my life. My experiences in China taught me so much about myself and changed the way I see the world.

Why should Elon students participate in Study Abroad or Study USA, and specifically on this program?
It allows students to get out of their comfort zone, China is a place wildly different than the United States and it really pushes us to learn as much as we can.
