Minds Abroad offers study abroad,
student exchange and

Diplomacy.” This award was conferred to us by the Center for
Citizen Diplomacy in partnership with the U.S. State Department.
Our study abroad programs include:
-
Small class sizes (normally 2-4
students, with no more than 7 students per class)
