Studying at the University of Limerick has been one of the best decisions in my life. Past Review

By (Keene State College) for

CISabroad (Center for International Studies): Limerick - Semester in Limerick

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
Studying Abroad allowed me to understand just how large the world is. I come from a small town in Vermont, so it was great for me to gain insight and knowledge about other cultures around the world. There are so many opportunties I didn't even think about until I studied abroad. I hope to travel over seas again after college and hopefully make a difference in another country.
