Past Review The Best
I learned a lot about myself as a person and about many other cultures. It was most definitely worthwhile. - Truman State University View Entire Review
Greece was amazing! My only complaint would be that some of the coursework was not directly relevant to Greece, its culture, and/or its people. I feel the program would benefit from the inclusion of more outings based in Thessaloniki that would supplement and enhance lecture material. - Georgia Southern University View Entire Review
I gained an intercultural expereince of a lifetime. - Northeastern University View Entire Review
Traveling Europe was amazing. Greece was pretty great. But the program was an absolute waste of my time and money - Goucher College View Entire Review

Vibrant Student Life
Anatolia University is a warm, welcoming and active community that offers students the chance to explore and develop through a wide range of workshops, clubs, field trips and volunteer opportunities.

Strong Support Services 
The International Programs Office has staff dedicated to assist students with all needs.
