I became much more self-reliant and independent. I gained so much perspective with this experience and really enjoyed it. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
Yes, this experience was definitely worthwhile. I learned a lot about Latin America and the challenges there. I really enjoyed Argentina and loved all the things to do in Buenos Aires. I met a lot of great friends in my program and think very highly of IFSA programs. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
It was most definitely worthwhile. I gained a greater world view and much more independence, all while taking classes and researching in another language. I understand myself a lot better now and know what I can and can't handle. - Providence College View Entire Review
I certainly made the right choice in choosing to study abroad in Buenos Aires and I feel as though I got the most out of what the city had to offer. However, I often felt tied down by all of the work required in this particular program.

The cultural and abroad part was amazing. I made life long friends from my host country and so many wonderful and challenging experiences. I gained a lot more spanish speaking skills from immersion than any class I took. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review

Yes it was very worthwhile, and I learned a lot about political structure and the effects that a dictatorship vs. a democracy can have on a country. I also learned a lot about the people of Argentina and can speak much better Spanish, and I can get around almost anywhere by myself, especially if English or Spanish are spoken. - Tulane University View Entire Review
Past Review
I am a completely different person because of my year abroad. I wouldn't change anything about it. I came away feeling totally comfortable traveling alone, immersing myself in a new culture, and maneuvering myself in uncomfortable and difficult situations. I am more confident in my ability to adapt to any lifestyle. I'm a... - Hamilton College View Entire Review
Past Review
Absolutely. I learned how to exercise independence, visited amazing sights, practiced intensively my Spanish, and ate the best beef in the world! - Hamilton College View Entire Review
