What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
Yes

Review Your Program

* Overall educational experience

Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc.

very different experience. you have to motivate yourself to do the readings and no assignments throughout the semester. grade dependent on final project/paper/exam. an "a" is 70% here but it is very hard to get that.

* Host Country Program Administration

On-site administration of your program

In constant contact and arranged meeting with us throughout the semester

* Housing:

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements?

* Food:

It was ok but many cafes and bars on campus to choose from

* Social & Cultural Integration:

How integrated did you feel with the local culture?

Just seeing the country

* Health Care:

How well were health issues addressed during the program?

* Safety:

No health issues and safety was never a concern of mine

If you could do it all over again would you choose the same program? Yes

Finances

* Money: How easily were you able to live on a student's budget?

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

Do you have any general money-saving tips for future study abroad participants? -
