Sharing your experience abroad helps prospective students to take the leap themselves. Check out one of the options below to learn how you can inspire future participants.
Stay in Touch
Fill out the Returnee Contact Form to get involved and share your expertise as a study abroad returnee. Information collected may be used in a variety of ways including website promotion, student advising, events and future program promotion.
Interviews
Share your experience abroad by doing a virtual video interview. An interview takes about 30 minutes and will be conducted over Zoom. Your video interview will then be professionally edited before being posted on the LAC YouTube channel. Contact Ilya Kravchik to set up an interview.
Example interview questions:
- Where did you go?
- What did you study?
- What was your most memorable interaction?
- Did you learn the local language?
- What obstacles did you overcome?
- What have you learned about yourself?
- When are you going back?
Submit Your Photos
We love seeing and sharing your photos on our various platforms. Send your photos to Ilya Kravchik via Google Drive. Note: you must sign a release and waiver granting us permission to use your photos.
Additional photo considerations:
- We can use only high-resolution photographs (3000px by 2000px or bigger).
- While we love scenery, "Action Shot" photos are best. Examples include photos with you and your fellow students engaged in academics, doing hands-on work, participating in local events, or candid moments with your homestay family
- Questions and submissions can be sent to Ilya Kravchik.
