FIE in the words of our students
On FIE redefining the classroom experience
“We understand a topic not just based on lectures but by going to talk to local people, doing field trips.”
”You get immersed and see things for yourself that you are taught in the class”
On FIE’s supportive environment
“They are a family away from home: FIE professors, students and staff”
“You do it all by yourself but you know FIE supports you all the time”

FIE believes study abroad experiences enable you to gain the knowledge, skills, and global perspective to create your future and make a positive impact

Students from over 50 US colleges and universities attend our study abroad programs.

We also offer semester and summer study programs in lively Barcelona as well as a summer Peace and Conflict Resolution program in Amman, Jordan. Students can study a variety of academic subjects while abroad including Art, Business, Communications, History, Literature, Politics, and Theater.
FIE supports students not only academically, but with our dedicated Student Life, Residence Life, and Administration teams who provide guidance and assistance on day-to-day matters while abroad.
Our world headquarters is based in South Kensington, London, so our students and staff are surrounded by some of the world's greatest cultural destinations such as the Natural History Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, Royal Albert Hall, and Kensington Palace. Foundation House is home to our administrative staff offices and classrooms. FIE student housing is within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea and is well connected by the Gloucester Road and South Kensington Tube stations.
