Why Choose API?

Why Choose API in Bhutan
Within the supportive environment of the API programs, API participants are encouraged to explore their host communities and become increasingly independent and confident in their own abilities. We strive to make international educational experiences accessible to as many participants as possible, and, as such, work to provide multiple program components at a low program cost.

“Studying abroad was the most wonderful experience of my life and API made the transition easier and made sure I got the most out of my time abroad. The staff was so helpful and were available at all hours if we needed help. I cannot say enough good things about API! Everything that is included in the program makes it worth every penny and makes the experience better than it ever would have been had I traveled on my own.”
