NEW BLOG!!!!!

WELCOME TO ABBEY ROAD'S BRAND SPANKIN' NEW BLOG!
This is officially our very first post! Check back often as we plan on posting and uploading new content all the time including exciting news, info, photos, and other media about what's going on with the company, the staff, alumni, and the many amazing programs that we offer.
The goal is for this to be a very interactive space for both prospective students interested in studying abroad with Abbey Road and for student alumni who want to share their own personal experiences. In other words, we want to hear from you! If you have any great photos, stories or tips from your own experience abroad (which we know you do) that you would like to share, let's put them on the site! That way, our content will always be fresh, providing a wide-range of unique, fun content. In a sense, the blog is simply another format of sharing information about the company's mission through constant updates covering everything from staff news, alumni news, company news, and anything else anyone would like to see addressed on the site. It is designed for anyone who wants to find out more about the benefits of studying abroad, learning foreign languages, and experiencing cultures other than their own.

For those of you not familiar with us:

Abbey Road was founded by Stanford University alumni and operated by experienced professionals from other top schools such as Harvard, Yale, and NYU, Abbey Road Programs brings together a staff team with more than fifteen years of practice in the fields of international student exchange, travel, and education.
At Abbey Road, we take great pride in our faculty and staff. Our full-time and summer staff directors, coordinators, instructors and resident advisors are experienced, dedicated and caring individuals carefully selected and screened. Many of our summer staff and faculty are talented university professors and instructors, high school teachers, college administrators, and advanced graduate and high qualified college graduates. We maintain a minimum ratio of 1 staff member for every 8 students.

We follow very simple principles:

Immersion, Enrichment and Growth

Our mission is to develop summer immersion programs for high school students that facilitate cross-cultural understanding and enrichment by providing a unique opportunity for: cultural immersion, intensive language study, exposure to new academic subjects, travel excursions, recreational activities, personal growth, and building life-long friendships.

Safety, Organization and Personal Attention
We put a particular emphasis on personal attention, high quality of academic, cultural and recreational programs, strong organization, and above all - safety.
