Make the Journey

“I think spending a semester abroad is truly one of the most challenging but rewarding things you can do for yourself. When I got back to Yale, I didn't feel like I had missed anything at all and instead felt much more appreciative of my time on campus after being away.”

– Romy Vassilev, Timothy Dwight, Class of 2019
