Study Abroad with AIFS
"I gained a new perspective and appreciation for American culture, which I had previously snubbed, and I matured a lot over the course of the semester. I started the program feeling like an out-of-place teenager, but I left feeling like a responsible adult who can live on her own and be taken seriously in society."
Coral K Austin College
"I would go back in a heart beat if I could. I grew up so much there and also learned a lot about myself and how I can take a culture I do not know and use it in my life here in America. "
Jessica O Indiana University - Bloomington
"Absolutely. I learned so much about myself and really gained a lot of confidence. I also noticed how much American's stick out over there, and learned that you start to blend in rather quickly. We started to notice it too, when family from home would visit, a couple of us watched them and thought 'Man, is that what we looked l..."
Noelle Z Saint Anselm College
"Very Worthwile, I've pretty much stated it all in previous answers at this point."
Jeffrey A Providence College
"This was a most amazing experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who even thinks its a good idea. Its the best idea! It completely changed my life."
Svetlana S Carnegie Mellon University
"Honestly, Barcelona was not on the top of my list of places I wanted to go. However, the moment I got there, I knew that magical city was for me!. The people are so relaxed and kind. They are very passionate about their city and way of life, and of course, their futbol! The city itself is beautiful and is surrounded by music, ar..."
Rachel J Antelope Valley College
"realized how much of an impact the US has on other countries, was able to see how race can be a big factor for some people. "
Kara H Nebraska Wesleyan University
"great cultural exposure. Went to temples and places of worship I would not have taken the initiative to visit on my own. "
Crystal G The University of Texas at Austin
"It was completely worthwhile. I learned how to be more independent. I learned not only the language but so much about the culture, people, food, history, and more. I tried to be a French person, and I think I succeeded!"
Brittan L Wartburg College
"My life has been changed so drastically. I was stuck pre-London. I didn't know what direction I wanted to go, where I wanted to be after graduating with a BA. After being in London and traveling the UK, Europe and, Morocco I realized that there are so many things I want to do and London released the inner me, I felt at peace ..."
Jessica B Indiana University of Pennsylvania
"Yes it was completely worthwhile. It has definitely put Spanish at the forefront of my future plans, whatever they may be. My cultural awareness has definitely grown - I am more aware and appreciative of our differences and am more eager to learn about and from others."
Lauren B The University of Texas at Austin
"This is a ridiculous question. Of course it was worthwhile. Very basically, I met some amazing people who are scattered all over the world now. My social network is huge now. The culture and feeling of the Czech Republic was similar to mine but allowed for growth in a thousand different directions. "
Walt L The University of Texas at Austin
"I just loved being in Paris. The location of my hotel was great, I was informed where to go and what to do. If I went with the program leaders, events would be free. I did most of my learning on my own, though"
Sasha S The University of Texas at Austin
"The AIFS program was extremely helpful in allowing me to dive into Spanish culture. They provided all of us students with great information about the food, language, places to go, sites to see, and anything else we could think of while living in Granada. "
Christina M Marywood University
"I loved studying abroad. I learned so much about myself and about how I can do anything I put my mind to. I love the fact that I got to experience Europe and see what every culture values. It was an amazing experience. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. "
Lindsey C
"This program changed my life. It has completely altered my future plans, and I actually want to consider graduate school in Africa now. It's not something I can easily explain to someone else, it's something that has to be experienced. "
Autumn W The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes, I went to religous places I never thought I would have gone. It brought me closer to my own religous practices. I also volunteered with a group of Latinas now living in London and that was eye opening. "
Karinna P The University of Texas at Austin
"All the money, time and stress pre-departure was TOTALLY worth it. I would not change a single thing about my time abroad and now I am SO eager to travel to Europe again and see everything that I didn't have time to see. I still keep touch with my friends from my program and they will be in my life forever. "
Lauren A The University of Texas at Austin
"I thought my time abroad was perhaps one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. The people I met and the places I travelled will stay with me for the rest of my life. I feel obligated to express my feeeling of how opening studying abroad can be for expanding both your academic goals as well as personal experience. In shor..."
Timothy S The University of Texas at Austin
"Study Abroad in Paris was one of the most amazing experiences I've had so far. When you go abroad you have this idea of knocking out all the sights and you make a list of all the museums you're going to see. But once you get there you kind of realize that it's not all about sightseeing. It's more about just living there. You..."
Emilie M The University of Texas at Austin
"I thought the trip was amazing, and would do it again in a heartbeat. I was a little dissatisfied with my living arrangement (namely how small it was) but the program was well run, and the advisors overseas were wonderful. I learned a lot, especially in my interactions with other people, and would very much recommend the program..."
Devon B The University of Texas at Austin
"It was worthwhile. Of course it changed me and increased my cultural awareness; it would be silly if it didn't. I learned that Central and Eastern European History and Politics are two of the most interesting subjects I've encountered and plan to study them in the future. I thought I wanted to, but I was very unfamiliar with the..."
M H Austin College
"Yes. I really enjoyed the program overall. I just wish I had known more about what the acutal course was about, I was completely unprepared for that. "
Vienna M The University of Texas at Austin
"My experience was very worthwhile. It was an amazing experience and made me want to see more our different parts of the world and different cultures. "
Allison B Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
