As a student staying for the entire summer session, SOL provided me with a great opportunity to study abroad in a country full of wonderful people.

Language, experiences Sonja M - Winona State University View Entire Review
I learned the value of family. In America, it is expected that people will move out of the house after they graduate from high school, but in Costa Rica/Latin America in general, family is valued a lot more and so people generally live with their parents until they get married. And when people get married, they will try to live ... A student - University of Delaware View Entire Review

I don't think there's a single person in our group that didn't make some serious realizations while here. It'd be a joke to try to sum it up on this review. Will P - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
I learned more about myself and a lot about the culture here in a small Latin American country. I gained a greater appreciation for love and family from being immersed in such a close knit and loving culture. Every second was worth something.

One of the most amazing experiences of my life. I learned a different way of life, and it opened my eyes to a new culture. Would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Becca Y - Grand Valley State University View Entire Review
I learned so much about myself, I have become a more confident person. I have struggled with a lot of self confidence problems in my life, but through this program I have become more independent and I have learned to love myself. I have found a love for traveling and trying new things. I find that I am constantly looking at life... Sally F - Seattle University View Entire Review

Definitely worthwhile. I gained spanish speaking, writing, and listening skills, but also learned so much about other cultures, which definitely changed my point of view for how we live in the United States. Studying abroad truly opens your mind to so many new things you never would have considered before. equitzau - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
