Andrea Boe had always planned to study abroad as part of her college experience. During her sophomore year at Tufts University, she began looking at programs in Spain for the following year.
Then, in March 2020, the coronavirus pandemic hit. Classes went remote, and many students who were already studying abroad came home early.
By the time Boe started her junior year in fall 2020, she realized her plan was doomed: Tufts canceled its study abroad programs for spring 2021 due to COVID-19.
