Studying abroad can be so transformative. Both my personal and academic trajectories have been radically altered by my time spent in Greece. I made new lifelong friends, picked up new hobbies, entrenched my academic interests within my specific discipline, and learned about my field of study in a different context. Truly, CYA has changed me in so many domains.

What advice do you have for prospective students who are interested in or planning to study abroad with CYA?

The time will fly by! Go to that museum today, visit that hill after class, go to the beach whenever you get the chance. Athens is a city with so much to do! So many layers of history to unpack so get to it asap. Don't leave it to the last minute because the time truly does fly.

please select any of the following that apply to you, and that you would be willing to share about your CYA experience with other students:

Accessibility, Finances, Student of color
