I thought Spain was a very welcoming and friendly city and am making plans to go back to see more of it. Going on this program was one of the best things that I have done in my life. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Yes, my experience was an unforgettable one. I gained an even greater sence of independence and a desire to travel and see more things around the world. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
I learned so much from being abroad. It was the best time of my life. It's crazy to think about how just overseas, people live differently. Just experiencing a new culture made me experience my own culture as well as embrace Spain's culture. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review

I loved my study abroad program. The six weeks I spent there were some of the best weeks of my life, and they changed me as a person in terms of how I interact socially. My academic interests and plans remain the same, and though my heart is in the US, my soul is in Spain. I would go on this program again in a heartbeat. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Changed my future career goals. - Florida Atlantic University View Entire Review
I had a great experience. I would do it again and wish I could have stayed longer. It helped me to learn about all different places in the world and meet people from there. I would consider working in Europe. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
I was able to understand other cultures and people to an extent I had no Idea. I want to go to Africa and the Middle east again. And I want to fall in love with a girl from Valencia and marry her (thats a personal life goal I did not have before I went on the trip) - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
One semester seemed just enough time for me. As going home got closer, the more I was anticipating seeing old friends and family. It was worthwhile and helped teach me a lot about myself. Seeing the sights you have only witnessed on a page or computer screen in real life offers fulfillment. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review

It was most certainly worthwhile. I learned not only lots of Spanish, but about other cultures, and ways of life. This experience pushes you to communicate and live with others who do things differently. This experience has made me a better student because I can now see the importance of retaining knowledge after a class is over... - New Mexico State University View Entire Review

My study abroad experience was very worthwhile. I learned so much about myself as well as on my view of the world. I recommend everyone to go study abroad, it opens your eyes to many things not just academic wise. Like many other people I was use to the American life but after being in Spain I began to question many aspects of ... - New Mexico State University View Entire Review

Studying abroad was wonderful giving me the experience to traveling out of the United States and live in another persons shoes for a month. I also began to appreciate what i have. Once you do it you'll understand. - New Mexico State University View Entire Review
I definitely think it was worthwhile; I was able to learn and travel at the same time. It is an experience that I will remember forever. - New Mexico State University View Entire Review
Past Review
The study abroad experience was definitely worthwhile though given the chance, I would have applied through Florida State University instead of Binghamton. The program was great, it was the school I went through that really seemed to drop the ball. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Past Review
Yes, it was very worthwhile. For so long now I have wanted to go to Madrid and I finally was able to accomplish that goal. I learned about the culture in Spain and how it differs slightly from the different autonomous communities. Madrid was an amazing place that I cannot wait to see again. - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review

A student studying abroad with Study Abroad Programs in Spain
This internship abroad has furthered my interest in law and the practice thereof. It also developed, individualized, and internalized the Spanish language in ways that continued classroom study could not have done. The program was, without a doubt, worthwhile, and I would highly recommend this program to others similarly situate... - Florida Atlantic University View Entire Review

I loved Spain, and that made everything worth it! But alot did go wrong and I think if I could go back I would have looked into it a little more. - New Mexico State University View Entire Review

My study abroad experience was absolutely worthwhile. I gained experience and knowledge that I couldn't have gained if I had just spent my summer here at home. I also met some really great people while I was over there and I hope that I will be able to see them again someday. - New Mexico State University View Entire Review

This experience was a great one that I would gladly repeat. The knowledge and history of Spain that I gained made me value more my life here in the United States. There culture is one that is still young and expanding and very open minded. Many friendly people which became our friends made a huge impact on our lives. The relat... - New Mexico State University View Entire Review

Yes it really was. This trip has been one of the most educational, interesting, and fun vacations of my life. I had to grow up a little while I was there as it was my first vacation without my parents, but it wasn't all that hard. I gained many friends over there as people were nice and willing to help me out most of the time. I... - New Mexico State University View Entire Review
