OCSE Photo Contest Winners - 2024

Off-Campus Study & Exchanges is pleased to announce the winners and honorable mentions of the 2024 OCSE Photo Contest. OCSE received hundreds of photos from students that studied off-campus during spring 2024 and 2024-25. Photos were submitted in one of four categories: My City, My Host Culture, My Sefl(ie), or My Return. A first-place winner was selected for each category. A Best of Show award was also given for the best overall photo. Representatives chosen by the office of Off-Campus Study & Exchanges served as the committee for the first round of judging and then the Skidmore community was invited to vote for the second round to determine the winners.
