Dublin is waiting with open arms... Past Review

By Nadine G (Global Business Management, University of Phoenix) for

American College Dublin: Irish Language & Culture Program

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?

Dublin is an amazing city filled with so many amazing individuals and opportunities. ACD was no exception. The campus, staff, and students all contributed in making my study abroad experience the best. I am confident it will do the same for any study abroad students that choose to attend one of the many programs they offer.

Review Your Program
