Study Abroad with Brigham Young University (BYU)
"I learned how to connect with other cultures (spend time with them). I learned how to be flexible with cultural differences, I learned to love a country I knew little about, I learned to accept new things into my opinions and the way I think. It was VERY worthwhile. I'd do it again in a heartbeat if I could!"
A student Brigham Young University
"I was reminded why I love learning in the first place, and gained friendships (with other students and the professors) that I hope to last a lifetime."
Ali C Brigham Young University
"Everything has to do with everything. No one is alone."
A student Brigham Young University
"I gained exposure to international study that I do not think I would ever be able to receive anywhere else. I also gained a knowledge of several cultures and peoples in a very short time."
A student Brigham Young University
"I learned so much from this study abroad. I didn't think it was worth it because it costs so much money to travel abroad. But I learned more about myself and about other cultures than I ever have. The experience became a foundation for where I want the rest of my life to go. It was one of the best experiences I have ever had and..."
A student Brigham Young University

"SO worthwhile. I learned about culture, about spirituality, and about myself. I would recommend it to anyone. "
A student Brigham Young University
"I gained maturity and cultural awareness. I learned a lot about myself and how I react to unfamiliar situations. I realized I am stronger than I thought. I realized other people can really help you. It was one of the most worthwhile things I have ever done."
Jared P Brigham Young University
"I've found that I am a history nerd. What better place to discover that fact than in front of Westminster Abbey? I've learned to accept people of other cultures, religions, and race in the melting pot that is London. I've developed a tolerance and respect. "
Haley W Brigham Young University
"I had never traveled internationally before, so it was great to just be able to experience different cultures. I saw so many beautiful places and met so many pleasant, wonderful people, and I'm homesick for Europe."
