This is one of the questions many SpanPort advisors get from student-Athletes. We are compiling three stories from our sister blog SpanPort Integrative Experience. Mary L. is very explicit, “¡Sí se puede! Students-Athletes CAN and (should) go abroad”. A Spanish major was able to fulfill her dream and studied in our sponsored program in Buenos Aires. Finally, another student tells us her experience in a summer study abroad program especially designed for Athletes in Costa Rica.
