IES Abroad

This summer is an exciting one for us here at IES Abroad, as we welcome 56 students to our Correspondent Program—our biggest summer cohort yet! 

Our Social Media Correspondents🤳 will be posting from across the globe, showing us their journeys in real time on their own Instagram and TikTok accounts. Our Bloggers✍️ will be sharing their stories via writing, photos, videos, and other creative pursuits. And all those beautiful photos you see on our website or in our catalogs? Most likely, they were taken by one of our Photographers📷 who work behind the scenes to capture the authentic IES Abroad experience. Across the board, you'll also find IDEA Correspondents, reflecting on how aspects of their identity intersect with their lives abroad. 

Some of our favorite posts so far? Gaby embracing the pre-departure jitters in her “hot girl apocalypse”Mimi’s very relatable TikTok about anxious packing, and Brian's magazine-worthy pics of Versailles—and they’re just getting started. We couldn’t be more excited to see new study abroad journeys documented through the eyes of these talented and creative students.

If you’re seeking a firsthand account of what it's really like to study abroad, look no further than one of our trusty Correspondents. Browse through the blogs, peep the #IESabroad feed or our Tiktok, or simply keep scrolling to learn a little bit more about who they are and where they're studying. ⬇️
