It was everything I wanted. I learned about different cultures, their way of life, met amazing new friends, learned about myself. Austin C - University of Colorado - Boulder View Entire Review
Learned a great deal about the freeing feeling traveling gives one. Whether it be on a bus, plane, or train, traveling with new friends or old friends always seems to be great. Still keep in touch with over 10 people from the program and there was only a total of about 75. It's a must go. A student - University of Colorado - Boulder View Entire Review
I learned so much I can't sum it all up here. A few examples: how to travel alone in a foreign country; more about European & world culture/history; how to get lost & still have fun! Definitely worthwhile Amanda P - University of Florida View Entire Review
I think I'm more outgoing and more adventurous. More confident. It takes a certain something to fly across the Atlantic Ocean by yourself and to submerge yourself into a country where you don't even know the language. Theresa D - University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse View Entire Review
Yes A student - University of Colorado - Boulder View Entire Review
Better understanding of the world and other cultures. The best experience I could ask for A student - University of Colorado - Boulder View Entire Review
It was worthwhile, you learn how to get alone with people you normally wouldn't, because of the constant proximity with them. A student - Indiana University - Bloomington View Entire Review
Yes, more than ever! It impacted everything about my life and I feel as if I'm going home completely different. I have realized how the world and life really does work and how inter-connected everyone in the world really is. Liana M - Providence College View Entire Review

yes. it was perfect. Lindsey F - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review
My study abroad experience was very worthwhile and I am very thankful I did it. I took a class called cross-cultural psychology and it was a great impact on my learning experience and I highly recommend it to every one. I gained independence from living on my own in another country Marissa K - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review
the most amazing experience in my life. being able to live in a beautiful foreign country and live the life the way they live and experience the joys of their beautiful country was priceless. Alexandra R - SUNY - Albany View Entire Review
I gained a different understanding of the United States and different countries of the world. It impacted my cultural awareness because now I know there is a different way to live life, that our way of living life may not be the best way and through cultural interactions we can learn a different way to live from the traditional ... Stephen C - Providence College View Entire Review
It was absolutely worthwhile!!! I learned how to stand up on my own: how to travel, how to interact with total strangers, how to get by without speaking the language, how to problem-solve on my feet, how to be flexible, how to enjoy the present moment, how to love diversity and differences in people and places, how to appreciate... A student - University of Colorado - Boulder View Entire Review

I really don't have a good grasp on any type of international culture A student - University of Minnesota - Crookston View Entire Review
I gained a best friend, discovered my Italian roots, fell in love, explored the culture and its people, and developed a better understanding of our world as a whole. This study abroad experience and CEA determined my career choice of International Education and tremendously contributed to my character. Kristi E - University of Arizona View Entire Review
A whole new insight on entirely new culture. It was the most worthwhile semester of my life. A student - Indiana University - Bloomington View Entire Review
Absolutely. Traci S - University of Arizona View Entire Review
If I could give the overall satisfaction question 10 stars, I would. Studying abroad is a life changing experience (sorry there isn't a less-cliche way to say it!). It opens you up to new cultures and experiences and can completely change the way you view yourself and the world. After studying abroad, I added a Global and Int... Megan B - University of California - Davis View Entire Review
I gained independence and maturity from my program. I learned an insane amount about other cultures, but mostly my own. It did not change my future plans, only enhanced them, I wish to help others and will continue to do so with my greater life experience Marissa K - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review

Study Abroad Under The Circumstances I Had To Endure Taught Me A Great Deal About Myself.
Yes, my experience abroad has increased my cultural awareness. This experience has presented a new outlook on life and has increased my passion about service. Cedria S - Stephen F. Austin State University View Entire Review
I was able to experience a whole new culture and realize the world does not revolve around America. It helped me see the full circle of aspects in my major of apparel design. Toni S - University of Wisconsin - Stout View Entire Review
