Coronavirus (COVID-19) Updates

World Learning, Inc., and its family of programs – including School for International Training (SIT) and The Experiment in International Living (The Experiment) – are committed to prompt communications with all stakeholders impacted by the spread of COVID-19. Our teams and programs have been in close and frequent contact with students, parents, advisors, partner institutions, and others to inform them of changes necessitated by this situation. We will continue to use and operationalize all resources at our disposal in our efforts to keep our constituents safe. 

The safety and security of World Learning / SIT students, faculty, and staff are of paramount importance in this situation, and any action we take is with that concern foremost in our minds. World Learning is committed to meeting all situations head-on and taking all appropriate action to mitigate risk. Our priorities are to:

  • Ensure the safety, security and well-being of students, program participants, faculty and staff;
