A review on South Africa: Multiculturalism and Human Rights
Reviewed by anonymous reviewerstudent on
Less time in classes, more experiences
This program was no academic in the sense that the actual in-classroom time was not all that frequent and no extremely structured. I think some SIT programs can have vigorous academic components -- but it varies. But because we didn't spend so much time in classes -- we were able to learn more than I ever thought possible about people and the culture and the state of public health in South Africa.
It was an extremely valuable experience.

Post study abroad I did Peace Corps in Tanzania and am now going to work on Africa-related issues at the State Dept.
Study Abroad with SIT opened my life to these professional options, academic thought that has inspired this work and incredible personal growth. -
South Africa: Multiculturalism and Human Rights Cultural Immersion in South Africa
Reviewed by Emma Nathanson on .
I had a life-changing study abroad experience in Cape Town, South Africa. Living with four different families over the course of four months was the highlight of the trip as I learned more about South Africa and myself than I ever could have in the classroom alone. A great program!

Reviewed by Rebecca J. on .
SIT Bolivia in Cocha is fantastic. The program directors are great, homestays were great experiences (if not you could move, no problem). The focus on the program theme was great & I REALLY enjoyed my independent study project - I'm doing an honors on it now!
