Past Review

Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc.

I loved my direct matriculation class and learned a lot throughout the semester

On-site administration of your program

The on-site administration was great- very helpful, fun, kind and available if we needed them.

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements?

I lived in an apartment building with a mom, a sister and a brother (both of whom were around my age). It was so much fun and I felt as though I was a part of the family. They were the best part of my abroad experience. The apartment was in a great area and there were a lot of fun things in the neighborhood. <br /><br /> I loved living with a host family. It helped to immerse me completely in the culture. My spanish improved and my host mom was a great cook.

My host mom is a great cook!!!

How integrated did you feel with the local culture?

The people were nice and the nightlife was fun. I'm pretty independent and enjoyed exploring the city on my own. I'm happy that I was only there for 1 semester because Cordoba is not a big city and can be boring once you get to know it.

How well were health issues addressed during the program?

The administration was great about helping us if we were sick or needed to see a doctor. Cordoba is a pretty safe city and I only felt in danger once, but it all worked out fine.

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

Going abroad is a great way to improve language skills and living with a host family adds to the experience because it forces you to speak the language and learn how to express yourself clearly and coherently.
