Cultural activities & excursions

Explore more than what happens in the classroom. Start Abroad gives students structured opportunities to engage with their surroundings, connect with peers, and experience daily life in London firsthand.

Students participating in this program have access to a wide variety of social, cultural, and extracurricular experiences designed to help them engage more deeply with British culture and community life. Past activities have included things like Neighborhood Walking Tours, visiting local museums and historical landmarks as well as Afternoon Teas and performances in the West End. 

There are also opportunities to attend local festivals, take part in scavenger hunts and quizzes, enjoy formal dinners, and explore iconic sites across London and Britain through group day trips. Students are encouraged to stop by the FIE Office in Foundation House for support, guidance, and tips on making the most of their time in London.
