“Definitely one of the most memorable moments of my life. If you are reading this, then it is your sign to go and study abroad! It alters your perceptions of cultural traditions, you become open-minded to new ideas that are not your own and form great connections.”
– Nancy, Israel & Egypt
“This summer I traveled to Jerusalem, Israel and Cairo, Egypt through the KIIS program. I studied the history, politics, and religion of these two amazing cities. I visited the Holy Sepulchre Church, the Western Wall, and the Dome of the Rock. I was able to float in the Dead Sea and visit the markets in the old city of Jerusalem. In Cairo, I visited the Pyramids and the Great Sphinx of Giza and the National Museum. I stayed at resort on the Red Sea, and I had the time of my life snorkeling. My favorite part of my experience was meeting so many great people and being immersed in the unique culture!”

“The KIIS summer abroad program to Egypt and Israel will be one I never forget. I learned so much through my amazing professors and friends, but most importantly my experiences. One lesson I took away from the trip is that it is way more important to remain present and to put the phone or camera down for a while. Photos may fade, but memories last a lifetime.”

“I could write a book with how much I learned and experienced while being in this program— the dance, the history, the government, the culture, and all…I worked very hard every waking moment.”
