Overall Experience
I improved my Spanish tremendously!!! I made forever-lasting friendships with Spanish people! - Boston University View Entire Review
My goal of improving my language skills was definitely achieved. I love Salamanca because a small percentage of locals speak English so there is always an opportunity to practice and improve your Spanish. - Drake University View Entire Review
YES! GO! - Southern Illinois University - Carbondale View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself during this experience. I also learned a lot about other cultures. I have always thought traveling would be an amazing experience and now I can't wait to do it again! - Wright State University View Entire Review
AIFS in Salamanca, Spain was absolutely wonderful. It opened my eyes to another culture and another side of the world. I have more of an understanding for foreigners who come to the USA now. - Wright State University View Entire Review
I learned how to survive on my own in a foreign country and trusting my language abilities to get me through any situation. I learned that people are readily available to help you and understand that you are a foreign student. There were many differences between the United States and Spain and I learned how to accept both cul... - Eastern Connecticut State University View Entire Review
Yes it was completely worthwhile. It has definitely put Spanish at the forefront of my future plans, whatever they may be. My cultural awareness has definitely grown - I am more aware and appreciative of our differences and am more eager to learn about and from others. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
It was incredible and allowed me to make friends from almost every continent on Earth. Salamanca was amazing. - The Catholic University of America View Entire Review
It was tremendously worthwhile. I met so many fantastic people, Spaniards and Americans, had the chance to speak Spanish every day, lived in an impossibly beautiful city, saw so much of the world, ate amazing food, gained confidence in my ability to live independently, and truly experienced life in another culture. - Macalester College View Entire Review
This experience continues to grow in significance and meaning as longer periods of time pass by. It is something that is no longer just a memory, but the joys and challenges of this time are etched into my heart. My time abroad showed me capabilities within myself I was unaware of. It also helped me re-establish my deepest passi... - Colby-Sawyer College View Entire Review
It was the most amazing beneficial experience of my life and I wish I could have stayed a year or more with my group and my family. I am much more open minded and tolerant of those around me. It was truly the best experience I have ever come across. - Saint John Fisher College View Entire Review
Yes! I learned soo much about myself and the world outside. I wish that I could do it all over again, but then I would never want to lose the experiences that I gained being there. It made me see the world differently, in a way that sometimes cannot be explained. It has impacted me for my future, because now more than ever I wan... - Washington State University - Pullman campus View Entire Review
From the moment I arrived in Spain I felt so much more aware. I have learned to pay attention to world events and only want to experience more. The semester abroad definitely helped me grow up in so many ways. Now that I am actually back on a campus I feel like everything is so structured and I miss the freedom of Europe. - Grand Valley State University View Entire Review
Absolutely. - University of Michigan - Flint View Entire Review
I loved studying abroad. I learned so much about myself and about how I can do anything I put my mind to. I love the fact that I got to experience Europe and see what every culture values. It was an amazing experience. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. View Entire Review
