Carpe Diem - it's not a single place (although we do get to experience some pretty awesome spots, like this one!), a single purpose, or a single person. Our community is a wide variety of experiences that make up a brand that stands for education, adventure, and meaning! 👉 Alumni, what would be the "title" of your Carpe Diem semester?! #carpediemeducation #carpegapyear #gapyear #travel #getoutside #gap #studenttravel #studyabroad #servicelearning #worldtravel #italy #greece #india #himalayas #portland #southamerica #centralamerica #ecuador #peru #borderlands #newzealand #australia #southeastasia #southpacific

About us
Our programs are designed to safely challenge every student. Through service, travel, community and cultural exchange – our students receive a unique and personal insight into themselves and the cultures they live within. Our Overseas Educators are trained to facilitate personal growth and learning within the structure of an academic semester. This combination has proven to be the best way to open the eyes of Carpe Diem students to the various perspectives of the people and environments across the world. We challenge our students by consciously teaching them how to be better group leaders and better self-leaders – and how to safely travel independently anywhere in the world.

Alumni, we all know that the travel highlight reel isn't always the real deal of travel. Travel experiences inherently have a lot of waiting around, getting lost, working through challenges, and figuring things out! 😮💨 Whew! But sometimes when we're just waiting around ... that's when some of the Carpe Diem magic happens - you have a conversation that changes your relationship with your peers, you see a sign that leads you to a cool and interesting spot, or maybe you learn from a challenging interaction. 👉 What was one of your most unexpected travel moments? #carpediemeducation #carpegapyear #gapyear #travel #getoutside #gap #studenttravel #studyabroad #servicelearning #worldtravel #italy #greece #india #himalayas #portland #southamerica #centralamerica #ecuador #peru #borderlands #newzealand #australia #southeastasia #southpacific

Reflecting on the incredible journey of our India and Nepal semester with Carpe Mundi last spring. 🌏 From the bustling streets of Delhi to the serene temples of Kathmandu, our students immersed themselves in diverse cultures, forged meaningful connections, and explored ancient landscapes. This wasn't just a trip—it was a transformative experience where exploration met introspection, and every moment was a step towards personal growth and understanding. #CarpeMundi #IndiaNepalSemester #ExperientialLearning #StudentTravel #CulturalImmersion #Adventure #Reflect #Grow #CarpeDiemEducation

🌄 There's something truly transformative about spending time outdoors. It's a chance to disconnect from the hustle and bustle, breathe in fresh air, and find clarity in the natural world. 🌎 Even though it may be extra hot outside, how are you making sure you get outside this week?! #carpediemeducation #carpegapyear #gapyear #travel #getoutside #gap #studenttravel #studyabroad #servicelearning #worldtravel #italy #greece #india #himalayas #portland #southamerica #centralamerica #ecuador #peru #borderlands #newzealand #australia #southeastasia #southpacific

Reflecting in Guatemala, gazing into endless possibilities. 🌄 Gap years are more than just a break—they're a chance to grow, reflect, and discover who you are. For those aged 18-22, this time is crucial for self-discovery and growth. Stepping out of your comfort zone, immersing yourself in new cultures and landscapes, challenges you and shapes the person you want to become. Why take a gap year? Because the world is your classroom, and every moment is an opportunity to learn and grow. Embrace the adventure, and let the journey transform you. #CarpeDiemEducation #GapYear #Travel #Growth #Reflection #AdventureAwaits #ExploreTheWorld #SelfDiscovery #Guatemala #StudentTravel #WorldTravel #GetOutside #GapYearGrowth
