I think the Ithaca College London Program is excellent. Past Review

Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc.

I think the London Program is excellent. The workload is just right for the study abroad experience, not too much but not too little. The professors are all very intelligent and engaging. While the program is quite similar to Ithaca College itself, its smaller size makes for a personable, close-knit experience.

On-site administration of your program

The staff at the London Center was very friendly and helpful. The program was run very well and any issues were resolved quickly. Having lived in London for a while, some their whole lives, they were knowledgeable about the area.

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements?

We found a flat on our own which was a bit stressful, but gave us the opportunity to become familiar with the geography of London. The staff were very helpful in referring us to locations and contacts. We found a 2br, 2bath flat close by, in Chelsea, 8A Westgate Terrace. To my knowledge, the landlord continued renting to Ithaca College students after we left. <br /><br /> It was great being so close to the London Center and the neighborhood was beautiful and very safe.

We did our own grocery shopping and cooking which was great. Though the metric system was a bit of an adjustment, we enjoyed going shopping and experiencing British cuisine. It really added to our living experience.

How integrated did you feel with the local culture?

How well were health issues addressed during the program?

I personally didn't have any health or safety issues. We lived in a nice part of London, fortunately, so I never felt unsafe. The staff at the London Center advised us on what to do in case of emergency so I feel getting health care would have been a reasonable process.
