Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Further to your article "Americans 'misled on Cambridge study visits' " (11 August), INSTEP has not and does not claim a relationship with the University, even though students are taught by academics holding teaching posts there. The picture of Warkworth House is misleading. No INSTEP students are now housed there, nor is it part of the Institute for Study Abroad, Butler University, whose UK office is in London.

The ISA, Indianapolis, is a respected organisation which recruits some of the students to INSTEP's 12-week semesters and arranges credit transfer to the students' American universities. The brochure referred to in your article was not published by INSTEP but by ISA and included its programmes in Oxford, where some formalised links exist with certain colleges.
