You will receive individualized support from ASA’s advisors and staff throughout your program application process, while you are abroad, and when you return.

Before you depart we work with you and the staff at your home institution to help you prepare for your time abroad. We are happy to speak with you to discuss ways you can maximize your experience in Costa Rica.

In keeping with the values of diversity, equity and inclusion, we want to help all students, from the broadest range of backgrounds, have the opportunity to study abroad.
