The best thing I have ever done to enrich me education... Past Review
By Sarah T (Leadership Studies, Our Lady of the Lake University) for
American College Dublin: Irish Language & Culture Program
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
Dublin is a wonderful city. It is full of so much divesity and people are friendly and helpful. Going abroad changes your perspective and you gain so much from it. I would suggest this to anyone interested in going abroad and going to ACD.

A Look Back
* What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? | The staff at the American College Dublin help place me in an internship position that was exactly what I needed to fulfill the requirements of my home university and gave my valuable experience that was relevant to my degree plan. Any student would benefit from this particular program. The living arrangements were in safe areas and it was accessable to everything a student could need. The Direcotr of the Study Aboard Program is very involved with the students and ensures all thier needs are met. |
