Review Your Program
|
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
It's really tough but a challenge and worth it if you want to learn something. |
|
* Host Country Program Administration
On-site administration of your program |
Everything was great. |
|
* Housing:
How satisfied were you with your living arrangements? |
I had a horrible experience with a room mate who basically forced me to move out of the house and live with a friend. I feel as though it could have been a better experience because I was bullied by another male room mate as a female. |
| * Food: |
Great. |
|
* Social & Cultural Integration:
How integrated did you feel with the local culture? |
I didn't attend any events. |
|

Everything was fine. |

No

A Look Back
| * What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? | I would tell every student to stand up for themselves. If they have a problem with something, they should always talk to University so they are not alone. |
