Past Review Go To Oxford! Tufts Programs Abroad: Tufts in Oxford

"Definitely worthwhile - I couldn't have done anything better during my junior year. I've made friends from all over the world who have already come to visit me in the U.S. Oxford encouraged me to pursue a senior thesis and taught me that I can handle independent, self-taught learning."

Past Review Oxford: Better Than Hogwarts Tufts Programs Abroad: Tufts in Oxford

"I loved every aspect of the Oxford program; truly the best year of my undergraduate career. I met some of the best people there- which surprised me, I thought people would be more pretentious.

Past Review My Home In London Tufts Programs Abroad: Tufts in London

"My everything was completely altered by this program. UCL taught me how to read, write, and experience academia in an entirely different way than I did before. This experience taught me how to navigate a city, how to cook like a real person and not just a student, and how to act in clubs and pubs and at high tea. I learned th..."

"Studying in Hong Kong was definitely once in a lifetime experience.

Past Review London: Forget About The Books, Bring Money Instead Tufts Programs Abroad: Tufts in London

"It was absolutely worthwhile!! I didn't like my academic experience, but that has little to do with UCL and a lot to do with the British education system in general.

Past Review Semester In Paris: From Boston To A Boulangerie Tufts Programs Abroad: Tufts in Paris

"Going to Paris offered a very Western-focused study abroad experience, and in one sense I regret that I didn't choose a French-speaking country that was more 'off the beaten path' and might broaden my perspective more than a semester in Paris. On the other side, I got to see the Eiffel Tower at least twice a day, eat some of the..."
