The Institute for International Education (IIE) reports that fewer than 10% of American college students participate in international study programs, and less than 25% of those students are from underrepresented minority groups. More than 60% of Peralta Community College District (PCCD) students qualify for Federal financial aid (PELL grants) and the idea of studying abroad seems to be far out of reach for them. Educators understand that a study abroad experience can be a life-changing, transformative event offering students a newfound sense of confidence or independence, the ability to learn a new language, and an increased ability to successfully work in diverse work environments.
