Past Review A Dream That Proved Better Than I Imagined And Yet So Real. Arcadia: Florence - Italian Language and Culture in Florence

"I grew in so much confidence in Italian and in my Art History knowledge and passion. My professors were so affirming and my friends were so encouraging. I also have decided that living in another country is in my possibility and that I would actually enjoy it maybe more than living in America. "

Past Review Unforgettable Study Abroad, If You Have The Money Arcadia: London - London Internship Program Summer

"Definitely worthwhile, because I have been thinking about moving to Europe/going to London for grad school, but I didn't know if I would fit in. This was a great trial run and I've realized Britain is very different from its portrayal in books/movies."

Past Review Absolutely Breathtaking. Florence Is The Best City In All Of Europe Arcadia: Florence - Accademia Italiana Florence

"Things like gaining a new perspective and having a global mindset did come, without me realizing, but that is also such a small part of what it means to study abroad.

Past Review Arcadia: Beautiful Perugia, Umbria Institute Summer Arcadia: ISI Perugia - The Umbra Institute Summer

"Going abroad was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Going to Perugia was also one of the best decisions I have ever made.

"The grass is always greener. That being said, I saw things I'd never seen before, I met incredibly interesting and diverse people even if almost all of them were not local.

Past Review Great Semester In A Nice City Arcadia: London - University College London

"I learned that a college full of english-speaking students in the center of a European city is not that different from the same in a US city.
