Studying abroad may be the best thing that I have done and will do in my time in school. It was an extremely fun experience, but it also taught me a lot about myself.

It was truly a life-changing experience.

Czech language; the ability to live by myself; mitigate conflict with friends tyler.minnich.9 - The College of William and Mary View Entire Review
Due to the administration and leaders in the host country, I feel I would have had a better time in a different organization or in another location. I have studied abroad before and spent a lot of time abroad, so I feel my experience was purely due to the program in the CR. Lauren L - St. Edward's University View Entire Review
Yes, despite the lack of preparation leading up to the trip through the American offices, the PRAGUE ISA OFFICE made the whole trip worthwhile. Personally, I am really frustrated that ISA Austin, Texas and the Study Abroad Office at ISU continue to make us respond to this trip, and I am ESPECIALLY disappointed that this survey n...

The academics were challenging, yet they left time to fully see and experience the Czech culture. Cody A - University of Washington View Entire Review
I loved Prague and the Czech Republic. It was the people who joined my program with negative views of those who aren't exactly like Americans that made my program less than perfect. Still I managed to fall in love with Prague and hope to go back someday soon with people who appreciate the new and different. I feel the city an...

I learned more about international business studying it with foreign professors in the global arena than I ever could at my home university. I made friendships with both American and international students that will last a lifetime. I had the time of my life. My friends and I went out every single night for 28 days in a row, and...
