I have always thought that I would want to live abroad or do missions work for at least a year, and this experience has absolutely affirmed that. There are so many opportunities just in this small city to help people, and what you can learn in the classroom is incomparable to the cultural immersion experience. I'm not...

It has taught me a lot of Spanish already and allowed me to live in a different area of the world and gain a different point of view. Greatest benefits: language acquisition, cultural understanding, fun experiences, great friends. Margo B - University of Connecticut View Entire Review
My study abroad experience has transformed the way I think, the way I conduct myself, and my relationships with others. In my eyes, the world has expanded into a cornucopia of distinct cultures and peoples, and also has shrunk into a place I can tangibly explore in a lifetime. I have changed from the dreamer with abstract fant... A student - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review

"SOL Education Abroad is an adventure. If you're looking for an adventure, then you've definitely come to the right place. I have never EVER had such an amazing experience as this one in my whole life. You learn so much; spanish language, costa rican culture, food, and so much more. Every day there's a new adventure, and... Caleb S - Universidad Latina View Entire Review
My experience in Costa Rica was DEFINITELY worthwhile! I would not change anything about my stay there, and I made some memories I will never forget. I gained the ability to speak with native speakers, as well as the ability to learn how to independently explore a country. (These skills I have DEFINITELY used since my visit) I h...

SOL was the most life-changing 6 weeks of my life! It has helped me love Spanish so much more! It's the best study abroad program I could find and it proved to be true! I wouldn't have wanted to spend my summer doing anything other than studying Spanish in Heredia with SOL! Kiah F - Oklahoma State University - Stillwater View Entire Review

A Freeing, Eye Opening, And Challenging Adventure! Organization For Tropical Studies (Ots)
I learned many things. Academically-wise, I learned aspects of public health research, and I learned much about Costa Rican health system and their people/the indigenous. Personally, I gained confidence in myself and developed a more relaxed attitude. Yes, definitely worthwhile, it changed me in a good way. A student - Austin College View Entire Review
Honestly, traveling anywhere internationally is an incredible eye opening experience, in itself! However, through Sol Education Abroad, I can honestly say that the directors helped us and promoted experiencing the Costa Rican culture as much as possible. In the end, I will always remember the sights and sounds of the country's b... Thomas H - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
