Impact Stories

College student posing on the London Eye
Sarah Shewaye
“I am very grateful to take part in the PathwayOregon sponsored study abroad program. Before my flight to London, I had never gotten on a plane alone in my life. While I have traveled around the US and Mexico with my family, I have never even driven more than two hours away by myself. Many other PathwayOregon scholars were in the same boat of lacking travel experience which meant that the program extensively prepared us before we left.”

“London in a Global Context was a great program that changed my perspective on the world and my life goals. The program was unique, with interactive classes where we would learn material in class and then visit the sites throughout the city. We also learned about British culture through the theater and historical tours. The instructors of the program were passionate about their courses and gave us creative assignments to encourage research and critical thinking.”

“Studying abroad in London was the first time I had ever left the country. I had always wanted to visit, as my grandmother lived in London and instilled a love for England in my mom, who had never been able to visit. She in turn passed the desire to visit to me, but it was never a possibility due to financial constraints. Through this program I was able to fulfill a generational dream and connect with the memory of my grandmother.”

“This was my first time leaving the country, so it was a meaningful experience that broadened my perspective and deepened my understanding of different cultures. I also built friendships during the program, which made the whole experience even more special.”
