An incredible experience! Past Review
By Shannon B (Global Business, Providence College) - abroad from 01/08/2020 to 04/18/2020 with

I learned so much about myself, like that I love to travel, and about the world and culture. It was so worthwhile!

The CAPA London Global Business Institute Program, which I participated in during the Spring of 2020, had so much to offer! From a rigorous academic schedule that developed my knowledge of global business, to an incredible placement in an internship where I applied my skills in a hands-on environment, to a safe and comfortable housing arrangement, to fun and immersive events and activities. CAPA made me feel so supported both academically and socially. I loved every minute and would recommend the program to anyone interested in studying abroad! |
