Reflections on Rabat

Out of Rabat and onto Europe! After an amazing semester in Morocco, I decided to end my time in a way indicative of my stay; traveling! Saying goodbye to everyone in Morocco was bittersweet, but the closeness of my cohort instilled in me a belief that our paths would likely cross again. It’s weird not being around them every day, of course. There were only fifteen of us, so I would be lying if we didn’t all become strangely codependent on each other. Even on the weekends, travel was almost always accompanied by anywhere between two and ten other students from my program.

Well-located in the downtown area of Santiago and just a couple blocks from the subway, main avenue of Santiago, and the presidential palace, the student residence hall offers a lively, college-student oriented living experience with students from all over the world living together in one spot. While most Chilean college students do not live in dorms like U.S. students often do, this residence hall creates a dorm-like environment in a 10-story building in the city center. Residents live alone or with a roommate in suites that are like a cross between an apartment and a dorm room, each with a...
Homestays are offered in private homes in Santiago. All homestays are secured by the IES Abroad staff, located in safe areas of the city, and inspected on a regular basis. Choosing a homestay is a great option to learn more about Chilean culture, practice your Spanish, and live like a local college student would - most Chilean students live with their family during college years to save money. No two homestay situations are the same. Just as “family” could mean many different things in your home country, Chilean families also are quite diverse. Some families are composed of a set of parents...
Early Arrival You may not move into your IES Abroad housing early. If you arrive before the official arrival date, you are responsible for your accommodations until the first day of the program.

For hostel recommendations, we encourage you visit one of the many search engines online such as Hostelworld or TripAdvisor. If you're arriving early, make sure you share your accommodation arrangements with us by adding them to your Travel Itinerary Form when it becomes available in your...

Before you depart, you will participate in a mandatory virtual orientation program which is designed to prepare you for your time abroad.
