"I gained best friends, unforgettable memories, and valuable experience. If I could do it again, no question about it, I would. Not one penny spent do I regret.

Zachary W Trinity University
"I learned so much about French culture and French people. I was surrounded by people who loved to learn the same language as I do and they were just as excited as I was to dive into our studies and life in Grenoble. The people in my program made the trip worthwhile."
Sarah C Trinity University
"I learned how to be on my own, communicate in a foreign country effectively, take responsibility for my actions like when I missed a flight, and take care of myself by going to the doctor and speaking only in Spanish to them because no one else was going to do it for me. I learned that all things pass and get better with time, i..."

A student University of Wisconsin - LaCrosse
