Study abroad is becoming increasingly common for multicultural immersion in counselor education programs. However, little is known about students who immerse themselves within their own culture. This study used a phenomenological approach to examine the experiences of nine female counseling students of Mexican descent who took part in a study abroad program in Mexico. Three themes emerged from the data (identity, privilege, and reflection). Implications for counseling study abroad programs and multicultural education are provided.
