NAME Tiffany Holland ’16
HOMETOWN Austin, Texas
AREAS OF STUDY Premed psychology major
WHERE SHE’S STUDYING Universidad del Salvador, Buenos Aires, Argentina
WHY SHE CHOSE ARGENTINA “I chose to study in Argentina to improve my Spanish and learn more about Latin American culture. I wanted to be in a big city and Universidad del Salvador is located right in the heart of Buenos Aires.”
WHAT SHE’S MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO “Seeing the natural beauty of Argentina. I hope to explore sites like Iguazu Falls and Salta.”
WHY SHE’S BLOGGING “I’m blogging to show others all that South America has to offer. I also want to encourage other premedical students to study abroad and let them know that it is possible for them to manage the premed course load and make time for a semester away.”
SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENT Holland received a Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship, which offers grants to U.S. citizen undergraduate students of limited financial means to pursue academic studies or credit-bearing, career-oriented internships abroad.
