I learned not to stress the small things and I learned to appreciate the small things. I gained self-confidence and reassurance in my chosen career path. Studying abroad made me a better..."

A student Wellesley College
"Learned that I am a world traveler and meeting new people and exposure to new cultures and places is very important to me. Studying abroad was worthwhile. Being able to interact first-hand with a culture instead of reading about it is a phenomenal experience. "
A student Barnard College
"I gained independence and was able to travel internationally for the first time and live in a beautiful city, but lost a semester of great academics at my home institution. It was worth it because living in Europe as a college student, free from most responsibilities, is a singular opportunity that everyone should take advantage..."

"I learned what it meant to be an American by having my national identity in my face at all times. Moreover, I learned how to successfully live in a major global city while my main mode of transportation was a bicycle. "
Zachary R Brandeis University
"Expanded my general understanding of what life is like for other humans. European history is too often told through an American point of view, or a British point of view. It was refreshing to see a different side of the story. I feel like my image of Central Europe was a shallow stereotype and now it is not-so-shallow"

I learned I can study, work, and live abroad without the fear of missing..."
