Overall I very much enjoyed this program, but some improvements could have been made. First being more group activities and trips for Semester in Cyprus. Secondly, our Gabriel apartment had horrible furniture and did not provided adequate cleaning supplies A student - Augsburg College View Entire Review
Cyprus was great for the money. I enjoyed being able to travel throughout the entire country and visit the beautiful sites within the GLS class. The school is decent, reminded me of community college than a university setting but overall okay. Met a lot of friends from across the world and I wouldn't trade this experience for an...

Cyprus is a beautiful place to explore! The coasts are by far the most interesting places to be, but Nicosia has the history and the character to keep you occupied for a while. Cyprus is a delightful place that I'm glad I discovered! A student - Shepherd University View Entire Review
These statistics are skewed because I've already done this 3 times and I'm tired of thinking A student - Stevens Institute of Technology View Entire Review
its was a decent program, met a lot of cool people, wish we had more excursions. that is all i can think of right now but the review has to be at least 200 characters so i am going to continue writing until i reach it. A student - Susquehanna University View Entire Review
Overall everything was really good. I made a good decision coming to Cyprus and I had a great experience. I met a lot of cool people that I wouldn't have met if I hadn't taken the opportunity to study abroad. A student - Bemidji State University View Entire Review
Spending a semester in Cyprus was a wonderful experience. Living in a country and more specifically a city with such a strong cultural and historical background was an experience like no other. Professors at the University were very accommodating and the academic and social experience will definitely be an asset for my personal ... A student - University of Houston View Entire Review
It was so great! I absolutely loved it there, and it was the happiest I've been in a long time. I can see why Laura stayed and love it there so much. I'm truly thinking about returning there to do Graduate school. A student - North Carolina A&T State University View Entire Review
The Global Semesters program "Semester in the Mediterranean" in Cyprus was awesome and I would absolutely recommend it. Not only was travel within in Cyprus included in the program fee, but so was 10 days of travel to Italy, Greece, and Spain. The program coordinators in Cyprus are very nice and helpful, and overall I think the ... A student - Clemson University View Entire Review
The entire study abroad program was a great experience. I enjoyed myself tremendously. The classes were great. My favorite class was Introduction to Greek Language and Culture. I highly encourage everyone to study abroad in Cyprus. A student - Susquehanna University View Entire Review
The experience in Cyprus is what you make of it. Making local friends is crucial to having fun and finding the good shops and markets. You will likely be spending a lot of money on food and transportation. A student - North Carolina A&T State University View Entire Review
It was an overall great experience. Everyone in the program was extremely kind and helpful. All of the trips were well planned, interesting and fun. I made a lot of new friends through the program. And I'll never forget this experience. A student - North Carolina A&T State University View Entire Review
My semester abroad was a terrific one. Cyprus is a beautiful place. At first it was a little rocky because the weather was not what i expected nor did i know anyone; however, that did not last long. i was quickly able to hit it off with the people in the program as well as the people in the country. I soon found out how amazing ... A student - Bennett College View Entire Review
I absolutely loved it. I couldn't be more blessed to have come to such an amazing island and to have met so many wonderful people. I can't wait until I can come back and see all of the amazing people I now call my friends A student - Susquehanna University View Entire Review
I had a great experience the only thing I would really suggest is helping a little more with transportation knowledge. They gave us great suggestions of what to do in different places but not how to get there or what the buses were that go to that area. A student - California Baptist University View Entire Review
I loved everything about the program. Unic is a great school to study at, the campus is easy to get around. The location of our apartments is great in Engomi. There was always something to do while there. My only issue was I didn't like being all the way in Dino's while most people lived in Maro or Gabriel. It made me feel very ...

Had a wonderful time in Cyprus. Would do it again in a heartbeat! I got along perfectly with my housemates, I got to travel to Greece, Morocco and Switzerland and got to immerse myself in a culture with a very interesting history and political situation. A student - UMass Lowell View Entire Review
"I think this experience would have been a much better one overall had I better roommates. I wasn't expecting to live with Americans for the semester, as I thought we would be intermixed with Cypriot students. This made it very difficult to meet Cypriot students as the classes were incredibly small. Because of this, I feel as th... A student - Susquehanna University View Entire Review
The Mediterranean program was really amazing. Traveling to Italy, Greece, and Spain for spring break was incredible! Life in Cyprus is nice and laid back. The schooling is also laid back, which is nice for traveling around. A student - Illinois State University View Entire Review

overall loved my semester abroad, directors were great, food was wonderful, travel was eye-opening, made me greatly appreciate america. advisor at NY office quit right before I left, but other advisors were helpful A student - University of North Carolina - Charlotte View Entire Review
The program was a very good experience and helped me learn a lot about myself in a different culture. Taking classes here made me realize how advanced the American education system is. Being in Nicosia also made me more aware of my water usage and privileges I have in America A student - Susquehanna University View Entire Review
Cyprus is an amazing experience that shows a world you cant really find anywhere else. A story of a land split by religion and ethnic conflict in its past that still lingers over a guarded border region. With amazing beaches and beautiful sites, it gives you something to think about and something to enjoy. A student - Clemson University View Entire Review
Had a wonderful experience! No real complaints whatsoever! I miss it already and I wish I could go back. Loved the people. Loved the place. Loved the food. Loved the culture. Loved the language. Loved everything. A student - University of Redlands View Entire Review
