When parents send their children to study abroad through API, they’re helping them to test the waters of new experience with the knowledge that they’ll be supported every step of the way. Housing options in every location are vetted by local staff for security, comfort and proximity to schools and workplaces. On-site English-speaking Resident Directors and Coordinators offer support to students the entire time they are studying or interning abroad. And we keep parents connected, too, through social media and other communications throughout the program.
API offers the most inclusive cultural experience for the price. Excursions with safe and comfortable transportation are included in the program’s cost, as are many cultural activities, such as performances, museum visits and tours.
