I learned a lot about independence as well as adapting to a more relaxing and easy going way of living. My Spanish also improved immensely! A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about adaptability and I learned a lot about myself. I learned that different countries have different ways of life and that no single one is correct. I learned that you have to get out of your comfort zone in order to meet interesting people and also in order to discover things about yourself. A student - Trinity University View Entire Review
I improved my spanish skills, and fell in love with Argentina. Nicole B - Wellesley College View Entire Review
To live life as is with all minor details, instead of focusing on the pig picture. Was it worthwhile...not even a question! Karina A - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I improved my language skills, learned about life in another country and met many friends A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
Program, as well as Argentina offers you many opportunities. However, it is entirely up to you to make the most of it. iva - Brandeis University View Entire Review
It was all worthwhile because I was able to constantly practice my Spanish. I was not confident in my Spanish speaking skills going into the program but after four months, I believe my skills have significantly improved. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I learned how to be independent and to understand a city and a culture from my own perspective and to take things for what they are. It was very worthwhile and if I could I would do it again. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
Although I still have one month left, I learned that I could adapt to a different lifestyle in a hustling and bustling in a culture worlds away from Brandeis University, and that I could push myself to meet new interesting people (both Argentine and international) and try new experiences whether it was painting a rural school in...

I learned a TON about Argentina in general. I also learned how to be alone and be content alone (coming from dorm life in the US, it can be surprisingly uncomfortable). It was 150% worthwhile - no one can take this experience away from me. A student - Fordham University View Entire Review
So worthwhile, it was amazing! I became more open minded and aware of the world. A student - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself. I learned what I liked and what I disliked, and that's valuable information for self development. Stephanie J - Brandeis University View Entire Review

I learned that I'm ready to move on form college. It was a little difficult coming back to school having had so much independence abroad. ivette0607 - Scripps College View Entire Review
It was worthwhile for many reasons, language reasons included. A student - Trinity University View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile. I think I'll still be figuring out what exactly I learned from the experience long after my return date because it's given me a new, different perspective on my experiences before, during, and after the program. A student - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
I became much more independent and self-reliable. I know that I will be able to pull through for myself, and that I will alway be there for myself. I am much more autonomous and emotionally independent, as I only had myself to cry to for 5 months (family and friends were very supportive, but they couldn't be there with me). I am...

It was incredibly interesting to see how different Buenos Aires is from the rest of Latin America. There are areas of this that I find very positive and others that I find negative. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I improved my Spanish greatly and learned important skills necessary in an independent lifestyle. Yes. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I learned how to be independent in a foreign nation without my native language. I learned that patience is key, and also being adaptable b/c things often changed and plans had to be reevaluated. I learned that time flys by but it also goes slowly. Definitely worthwhile. I had many hard days, but I think those are the ones you le... A student - Fordham University View Entire Review
I gained a lot of confidence, fluency in the language, experience of taking integrated classes. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about how I function as an individual, as well as how to have a fun diverse experience. Caroline K - Trinity University View Entire Review
A better understanding of myself and argentine culture. yes, definitely worthwhile. A student - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
