Review Your Program
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
Workload was acceptable because professors understood that most students travel over the weekend. |
* Host Country Program Administration
On-site administration of your program |
Small campus, walkable distance to everywhere. Efficient and personal ISS office. |
* Housing:
How satisfied were you with your living arrangements? |
|
* Food: |
Their food was not too tasty. Everyone just ate sandwiches everyday because food was quite overpriced. |
* Social & Cultural Integration:
How integrated did you feel with the local culture? |
Every weekend I visited a different European country. It was so much fun! |
* Health Care:
How well were health issues addressed during the program? |
|
* Safety: |
The city is pretty safe. But there are no patrols on campus so it would be better to walk with a friend at night. |
If you could do it all over again would you choose the same program? |
Yes
|
Finances
* Money: How easily were you able to live on a student's budget?
(1 = not very easy/$200+ on food & personal expenses/week, 2.5 = $100/week, 5 = very easily/minimal cost) |
|
Do you have any general money-saving tips for future study abroad participants? | Traveling can be expensive, especially in countries such as Paris. |
Language
How would you rate your language skills at the beginning of the program? | None |
