Carrie C The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned so much from this experience. I grew more independent and learned that I could live on my own in a different country. I never got home sick, that's how much I loved being here. I would actually love to stay in New Zealand if I had a different career goal. I have grown to be a more relaxed, open-minded, independent,..."
Shalvi P The University of Texas at Austin
"I wish I could have stayed abroad longer. It really changed my life and I wish I could go to other places in the world, and not be a tourist."
Michael H University of Rochester
"I loved almost every moment of it and I still love it. I have another semester to go and I am looking forward to it! I still don't understand parts of the culture, but I like it all the same, its an adventure to go out there and find new bits and pieces of the culture that you have never seen before."
Vong L University of Minnesota - Twin Cities
"All in all, the study abroad experience was definitely worthwhile. Aside from learning from distinguished professors and language instructors, I was also able to take in all of Tokyo in a short while. This was thanks to our strategic placement, useful assistants, and overall efficiency of the program. I definitely recommend i..."

"I gained increased langauage abilities. Overall everything was beyond what I expected. The city is wonderful, I love Spain, and being there while the World Cup was going on was incredible. "
Ethan T The University of Texas at Austin
"I wouldn't say it opened my eyes or was culturally enriching, but I did have a great time getting to see a part of the world that I otherwise might not have ever seen. I didn't learn how to be a better global citizen, but I did notice cultural differences among the different countries I visited, and how they view tourists."
Kevin R The University of Texas at Austin
"Te experience itself was amazing and I would do it all over again if I could but I would not choose IES."
Diandra P Trinity University
"Definately. I would go abroad again in a heartbeat. Especially to Ireland - I think I fell in love with the place. I had friends that had gone abroad before, and after having gone myself, I know exactly what they were talking about when they said I would not regret the decision!"
James W Trinity University
"Very worthwhile, language, independence, food, maturity"
Maria A Trinity University
"definitely worth while. i like traveling and i have done it before so i already sort of knew what to expect. however, staying in one place for 7 weeks proved to be a slightly different situation. i definitely earned a lot more independence. which is what i wanted. i also had enough time to really get to know some people from spa..."

Elizabeth F Trinity University
"About to enter my senior year of college I felt pretty concrete and set in my ways. However, studying abroad showed a side of me i didn't even know existed and was able to expand my personal perception and beliefs even further. It has taught me that I am someone who needs to constantly be traveling and experiencing new cultures ..."
Lauren W The University of Texas at Austin
"This experience was definitely worthwhile! I really experienced the culture and acquired a greater understanding of the world around me."
Paige V The University of Texas at Austin
"Studying abroad was definitely worth it. Being on my own in a completely foreign culture forced me to adapt and negotiate with my surroundings. It was difficult to be so far from my family and friends, and even more challenging to face racism for the first time, but the friendships I made and the experiences I had in Japan made ..."
Caitlin C Tufts University
"Yes I loved it and want to go back! I learned so much about myself, the country, the language. why I the way I am and why Italians are the way they are. I met so many different interesting people and got to visit so many places, was exposed to a wonderful culture!"
