Prague: Most amazing 6 months i could have spent abroad Past Review

Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc.

I found the teaching method very effective. Our program was very small and thus we had one on one discussions about our work with our professor which i felt was very helpful.

On-site administration of your program

The On site administration was incredibly helpful, most things requested were done on a timely basis and everyone working there was incredibly nice. They definitely went out of their way to provide us with everything we needed and helped minimize any concerns we have. The only complaint i have was that they were a tad bit disorganized at times and sometimes got things mixed up but overall they were outstanding.

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements?

My housing situation was satisfactory, we had 6 girls in a 2 bedroom which meant i shared a room with 2 other girls and a shower with 5 other girls which i wasn't that fond of. The living area was big enough for all of us to move around and feel comfortable in but the rooms were a bit small and so was the kitchen. Besides that it was convenient that the shower and toilet were in seperate rooms so that the toilet was for the most part available when needed as opposed to not being able to use it when someone was in the shower. Appearance was fine and i felt pretty safe. proximity to our classes and the nightlife were excellent since we were right in the center of town so i have no complaints on that end.

I found it very easy to find food in prague since for the most part all cuisines were available. they also had a huge supermarket (tesco) which offered most of the stuff i was use to eating so that i could save money by cooking at home.

How integrated did you feel with the local culture?

our program arranged several tours and other cultural outings. We had "CET buddies" which were people who had been living there and knew places to go out as well as cultural events (art opening film openings festivals etc) we would be interested in going to.

How well were health issues addressed during the program?

i wasnt aware of any of the health issues of my peers but never hehard any complaints so i assume they were addressed well. We were thoroughly warned about pickpockets and where to look out for them, besides that i felt the city was pretty safe as long as you didnt do obvious risky things like wander the streets alone late at night etc.

(1 = not very easy/$200+ on food & personal expenses/week, 2.5 = $100/week, 5 = very easily/minimal cost)
