A Guide to Studying Abroad in South America
Why Study Abroad in South America
South America is bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Caribbean Sea to the north, and the Atlantic Ocean to the northeast. Compared to other study abroad destinations, the pristine landscape within the borders of South America remains relatively untouched. The preservation of ancient populations and wildlife species makes study abroad in South America an obvious choice for history and natural science majors alike, though students in any area of emphasis will appreciate the vibrant culture of this musical continent and the art with which it balances the influences of the past with a contemporarily modern vibe.
