It would have to say was nice but in the end I was ready to go home. I did not feel like I was living in a different country until people started speaking Greek.

My semester abroad was the most amazing experience. Everything I had hoped for and more. From not knowing much about Cyprus before, it blew me away. Awesome culture, people, and overall just a great time. A student - University of Tennessee - Chattanooga View Entire Review

I gained a sense of independence during my time away but I didn't get to interact with locals as much as I would have like to. I loved the opportunities I had to travel while I was there. A student - Susquehanna University View Entire Review

I was able to cope with other cultures for 3 and a half months while also meeting new people while establishing worldwide connection and it was worth it and I don't regret any single moment either. Lawrence F - North Carolina A&T State University 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

I had a great time. The Global Semester Staff goes over and beyond for the students that travel using their program. During my stay here, they made sure I felt safe and secure. Also, they gave me many opportunities to have a social life, and always encouraged getting involved with the local life here. I couldn't ask for more whe...

I learned a lot about Cypriot culture. I had not even known about this country until I came here and I learned a lot about history and culture. I also learned a lot about myself and how I love to travel and experience different cultures. It was definitely worth it. Suchi K - University of California - Berkeley View Entire Review
