Here at BC Study Abroad, we are excited to announce a brand new program. We have gathered some talented and passionate Writers in Residence to share with students their study abroad experiences and firsthand knowledge and advice about study abroad. Starting in September 2015, we will be featuring stories of their most enlightening adventures.

We believe that travel is one of the keys to a well-rounded, globally-minded education. The program is intended to provide a space for students to learn from those who have been abroad. So stay tuned for some amazing stories, and be prepared to get inspired!

We would like to thank everyone who entered the 2015 BCSA Contest. We received lovely stories, photos and albums from a wide cross-section of students and alumni.

BCSA helps make short-term study abroad more accessible, affordable and enjoyable for students from BC post-secondary institutions. The BCSA contest is hosted annually, so remember to check back again next year and participate to win great prizes!
