“"I've known since high school that I wanted to study abroad in Australia. Pinpointing exactly what program I wanted to take part in was a bit more difficult. The internship-education program offered by CAPA Sydney was a unique and great opportunity that I wanted to become a part of. As a student in the field of Sport Management, having relevant internship experience is essential to getting a full time job in the industry. Additionally, working in Sydney helped me get acclimated to the city's culture.
“Yet the biggest advantage that CAPA has over other study abroad programs is the students they attract. I met several students in the program who I befriended quickly and continued to stay in contact with now that we are all back in the States. On a professional level, these students will also be very important parts of my network as we finish college and begin our careers. Thus, the benefits of the CAPA experience last far longer than the semester spent abroad!"
— Tarik Kafel, UMASS Amherst Sydney Student, Spring 2011
“My Education is a great program offered through CAPA. It helped enhance my classroom learning by introducing me to some of the great culture London had to offer that I had learned about in class. It was a great way to explore the city while learning more and meeting some great people within the CAPA program.”
— Brooke Fine, Michigan State University London Student, Spring 2011
“Life takes us on journeys, some are easily forgotten others are a lifetime. My journey in Sydney, Australia was indeed a lifetime experience that cannot be put into words. I made long lasting friends and built professional network internationally. Sydney is one of those places where not many people get the chance to go to, but thanks to CAPA I was lucky enough to be in Sydney. Everything I learned there has changed my life both personally and professionally. Studying abroad gives you a different principle on life.”
— Comfort Mensah, SUNY Oswego Sydney Student, Summer 2011

National Study Abroad Scholarship Competitions
To be eligible, students must meet all regular program deadlines and be accepted onto a CAPA-led program. For students who apply for a need-based scholarship, they must show proof of financial need, either by providing a letter from their home institution financial aid office or sending a screen shot of their financial aid package to CAPA by the scholarship deadline.
It takes the Scholarship Committee approximately 3 weeks to review applications and render decisions. Students will be notified in writing by email of their status approximately 4 weeks after the scholarship deadline. Students should be prepared to commit to the program regardless of whether an award is received. Generally, scholarship money is credited to the program invoice and not given out as cash.
