London has been voted the most liveable city for study abroad by US students on Abroad101. The site's annual rankings also reveal students' top study abroad programme and even the best foodie city.
Students from the US have ranked courses in Costa Rica, Australia and Ireland as the best study abroad programmes in the Abroad101 2014 Study Abroad Rankings. The review website also announced listings of students’ top choices for summer programmes, foodie cities and budget destinations.
Abroad101, one of the largest study abroad review websites, has partnered with online crowd funding platform GoEnnounce, to sponsor and promote students' fundraising campaigns for a study abroad goal. Students who create study abroad "missions" will be entered into a draw to win $25 towards their target.
Members of the Abroad 101 advisory board have acquired the US-based study abroad directory with plans to bring it back from the brink of closure. The new owners intend to use the site, which attracts more than 2,000 visitors daily, to increase accountability in student mobility and advocate for "off the beaten path" study experiences.
American students have named study abroad programmes in France, Italy and China among the best, according to rankings compiled by the portal Abroad101.com. The rankings also provide niche category winners, such as best budget-friendly, top foodie cites and top non-traditional destinations.
