Announcing Our Top Rated Organizations & Online Programs of 2021

There’s no denying that the world of international education has been an uncertain one for the past two years. Although things seem both better and worse than at the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, students and travelers alike have continued to persevere and seek out meaningful experiences abroad when able. And for those who aren’t quite ready to travel abroad yet, revolutionary online programs have helped all kinds of people adapt to a world temporarily without the freedom to explore.

This year, we’re eager to see a continuing return to pre-pandemic levels of travel—as well as announce our Top Rated Organizations of 2021! Although the travelsphere has most likely changed forever, by shedding light on these exceptional organizations and programs, we hope to inspire future travelers to continue planning and dreaming for their future experience abroad.

Online research is no doubt a huge part of every travelers’ process prior to traveling abroad or choosing the right program for them and their goals. And considering how much influence positive reviews have on a person when it comes to things like jeans, furniture, or even Netflix shows, an exceptional review can be the one thing that pushes a future participant to choose a program.

As always, we’re so excited to share the most extensively rated organizations and online programs on GoAbroad.com from 2021* and to recognize all our partners who continue to adapt and innovate during one of the most turbulent periods in the history of international travel.
