AIFS Program: London, England | School: Western Kentucky University | Bio: Hi everyone my name is Jada Jefferson! I’m a rising senior at Western Kentucky University double majoring in Theatre and Diversity and Community Studies. I just returned from a semester in London and it had to be the most life changing experience of my life thus far. From the busy, fast-paced streets of London to the relaxed, bike riding people of Amsterdam, I found that the world was my oyster! While at my home college, I found myself getting caught up in the stress of trying to make the perfect grades and be the perfect student, that I knew I was missing out on the experiences most college students get to have. I realized studying abroad would be the perfect solution to this problem. I never thought that someone like me would be able to study abroad, but through AIFS, I was able to have the most meaningful experience and with so many scholarships! As an AIFS Ambassador, I want to ensure that no matter who you are or where you come from, studying abroad can be for you! “If you’re afraid to dive, then dive afraid.” - Viola Davis
