DE LA WARE

DE LA WARE

I AM HERE IN DE LA WARE

Because there are only 2-3 universities in Delaware, total. (2-3 because I know for sure 2 are actually technically universities, but I'm not sure about the 3rd.) And of those - let's be generous and say 3 - there is really only 1 that is well-regarded. That one does offer quite a few study abroad and exchange programs, so I don't know why it isn't on your list, but I'm guessing it's just something about specific countries or programs in your case. The U certainly engages international students on the reg.

As for Alaska, kids your age are literally leaving the state so fast that the state's picking up tuition bills to try and get young people to stay there.

__

As for Hawaii, also small. Also abhorrently expensive. Probably can't afford to bring in that huge of a population of students in general, let alone foreign ex as well as just regular ol' Americans.

__

Ohio? Genuinely no clue why on that one.

__

Montana? At least for a while had a population density of like 3 people per square mile. Might be a factor. Not exactly a happening spot. Also, at least was one of the leading suicide states. You wouldn't want to go there even if they did offer a program. (This portion of my explanations driven entirely by memory and not research. Accuracy may be below par.)
