Study Abroad with SSA Education Abroad
"Sense of a new culture and language, as well as life abroad in Europe overall. It was very worthwhile."
Ian K William Jewell College
"I can speak spanish a lot better and easier, I made a lot of new friends because I went without knowing anyone. It forced me to make new friends. Also, living with a host family was great because I got to eat the cultural foods and learn about a spanish family from the inside and learn about how they carry on their day. "
Madeleine P Austin College
"I think through this program I learned that I don't need to be afraid to use my spanish and that I do know how to speak pretty well. I definitely gained a lot of confidence in myself"
A student Wartburg College
"I learned about a different culture and whats important to them and how that affects their way of life."
Bekah H Wartburg College
"I learned to leave fear behind and dive right into what I want to do. I also learned the values of independence and true friendship. It was completely worthwhile."
Ally M Wartburg College
"It was absolutely worthwhile. I guess I already knew this, but the idea that life is about the time spent with la gente buena, rather than what you've got in your pocket or in the bank is the biggest piece that I took away."
Seth W University of Maine - Farmington
"I learned a lot of Spanish and this was great. It was definitely worthwhile for me."
serena.ugoretz Wartburg College
"I learned more about my ability to interact with people who come from different backgrounds and learn how similar we are. Also, I learned to adapt to various environments!"
kjerstin.lewis Wartburg College
"This was the best experience I have ever had. I grew up so much and learned so much about myself and the world. I would do it again in a heartbeat. My ONLY regret is that I only stayed for one semester, instead of two. "
Molly K University of Georgia
"Language skills, a different culture, financial responsibility, the importance of planning, friendship"
Alicia M Austin College
"It was incredibly worthwhile, I learned a lot about myself as a person and my capabilities. My Spanish greatly improved. I was able to share with Argentinian friends my culture as an American and learn about our differences. I met some wonderfully kind, open, loving Cordobeses that are hospitable and welcoming, in a way that I h..."
Alex G Samford University
"Definitely worthwhile. I became more independent, self-confident, cultured, open-minded, grateful of what I have back home and what I was able to experience in Seville, and definitely more fluent in Spanish."
brittany Eastern College
"I gained everything. It was completely worthwhile. I learned so much about life and gained a whole new perspective on different cultures."
alex m Ithaca College
"I learned that I am in control of my own experiences, that I can adjust to a new environment (especially a giant city), that I can find good people and good places wherever I go, and that I have the rest of my life to explore so it's okay if every moment isn't filled with meaning and perfection. In those ways, and others, it was..."
Elizabeth L Ithaca College
"I learned a lot about the local culture and how it is possible to live with minimal materialistic items and with less space. I personally do not need 80% of the items in my room and I also feel more appreciative of how easy living is in the US. It was a challenging and worthwhile experience overall."
Katie O Ithaca College
"I became much more comfortable with myself. And it WAS worthwhile."
Joe_6939 Austin College
"It was absolutely worthwhile. I have gained so many relationships that I hope will last a lifetime: my host family, loves, friends, housemates, Americans, etc. I have proven to myself that I can accomplish a lot, that I can flourish in situations that are challenging, that I have a whole life ahead of me to do whatever I want an..."
Kristin L Ithaca College
"Yes, I learned a lot more about my own comfort zone and taught myself how to step out of my boundaries in uncomfortable situations in order to embrace a whole different and exciting culture."
A student University of the Pacific
"It was definitely an experience that I believe every student should have. I had the semester of a lifetime in Spain. By the end of my stay, I didn't have the heart to leave the city and only returned home with promising to come back again. I learned a lot about the type of person I am and the type of person I would like to be. B..."

"Immersion is the key to becoming bilingual"
Rachel E Shorter College
"I do believe I changed after my study abroad experience. I grew as a person and learned things about myself. "
