Seeing and immersing in a different culture and way/ pace of life. A student - University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse View Entire Review
Independence, Developed world view A student - Fordham University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about budgeting, being independent, and I learned a new set of social skills being placed in an entirely foreign situation and trying to make friends. It was like college starting all over again. A student - Villanova University View Entire Review
I learned so much about meeting new people, learning a different culture and making yourself comfortable in a foreign place. It was 100% worthwhile, the best 5 months of my life Meghan G - Ithaca College View Entire Review
It was very worthwhile. Being in a different culture, even though it is still a Western culture, makes you reevaluate your own culture in a healthy way. cemanger - The College of William and Mary View Entire Review
Of course it was worthwhile. It may not have been exactly what I wanted all the time and perhaps I would have chosen a different program if I could have, but I have now had this experience and have grown and learned more about myself because of it. So, I can't say that it wasn't worthwhile, because it is now a part of my life. A student - Barnard College View Entire Review
Yes, I learned a ton about my host country's culture, it was the experience of a lifetime. Thomas B - Villanova University View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile. It opened my eyes to a whole new world out there and was just a great travel experience. The Irish culture is very similar to our in a way, but there are differences which were definitely noticed. Jenna L - University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse View Entire Review
It was somewhat worthwhile- I learned a lot about myself and pushed my comfort zone. If I could do it again, I would choose to go abroad with a small program or for a shorter period (perhaps summer or winter session). Phoebe H - Wellesley College View Entire Review
Going to Ireland was extremely worth while. I got to better understand myself, and experience some cultures that I wouldn't be able to experience elsewhere. Also, I was able to break some stereotypes and myths about America. Rory M - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Sense of independence and a better understanding of other cultures and myself. Living in Galway was one of the best experiences of my life. A student - Fairfield University View Entire Review
It was an incredible opportunity to meet new friends and travel throughout Europe. Unlike most bigger cities, Galway allows you to be become TOTALLY immersed in the culture and the city within just the first few weeks, making the rest of the experience that much more rewarding. Jeff D - Villanova University View Entire Review
It was worthwhile. I learned a lot and enjoy my time. Mohan F - Middlebury College View Entire Review
A sense of enormous self-confidence in my ability to navigate foreign places alone, and yes, it was the most important thing I've ever done. Alex H - Western Washington University View Entire Review
I learned so much about Irish history that I had never known before. A student - The College of William and Mary View Entire Review
I absolutely loved study abroad and I would do it again in a heartbeat. I did some amazing things, met some great people, and had some of the best experiences of my life. Studying abroad allowed me to get a taste of another culture and experience what it is like to live in another country. I learned so much and I have memories t... Kayla M - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I really do not feel this was a worthwhile experience for me. I was lucky in that I had family and friends in the area who were able to make my abroad experience immensely rewarding, but the study abroad aspect seemed to me inadequate. In the future, when looking for study abroad, I will be sure to select a program that has more... Rose B - Harvard University View Entire Review
No comment Chelsey G - University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse View Entire Review
I wouldn't say that my study abroad experience has changed my future plans. It did however, make me realize how similar Ireland is to the US. All those stereotypes about the Irish just aren't true and it was very easy to make friends with the locals. Kaitlin B - Longwood University View Entire Review
