From scholarships to internships, from a few-week excursion to full-year living experiences, learn how studying abroad can work for you.

Hello and welcome back to another season of STAMPED!
By now schools are back in full swing and the start of this episode makes our third fall semester &#x1f60a; I guess you could say this is our junior year!
This year we hope to build out STAMPED in a way that provides more foundational information on study abroad while continuing to share impactful international education stories!
So for today we’re starting off with the basics.
1. What is study abroad?
2. What types of study abroad exist?
3. Where can you learn more?
Be sure to share this episode with someone you think needs to study abroad (or their parents lol)! 
 
Until next…YOU’VE BEEN STAMPED!

Study Abroad: The Basics

I met Alex Montoya in December of 2014 at The White House Travel Blogger Summit on Study Abroad and Global Citizenship. He was the only student we heard from at the event. All being participants of study abroad and travel programs ourselves, this was okay but the reason was obvious: He was a recipient of the Gilman Scholarship, which helps connect underserved populations that might not have the opportunity to afford or find programs to study abroad with the ability to actually go and participate in internships and learning abroad.
With encouragement from a professor, Alex found the guidance to discover the opportunities out there to study abroad, what it means to study abroad, and how to make it happen. In this episode, we explore his story, the transformation, and how it felt to be speaking on stage, at The White House, with the biggest names in travel and government.
