At AIFS Abroad, we support all participants in their study or internship abroad journey — no matter their gender, race, religion, age, physical ability, or sexual orientation. Everyone’s identity is shaped by many different factors, and for some, faith, spirituality, and religion play an important role in choosing where to go.

We encourage you to think about what matters most to you as you explore your program options.

Everyone’s journey is different, and where you go can shape how included and comfortable you feel. As you explore your options, we hope the information below helps you find the program and location that feel right for you.
