Study Abroad with University of Texas - Austin
"There are perspectives on history, culture, and the living experience that you can only find if you go there yourself. The courses I took helped provide context for a lot of what I experienced, and I can confidently say that I would not have the depth to my perspective if I didn’t go."

"There is so much to gain from this experience. First a sense of independence. Though you're living in an unfamiliar area it is incredibly easy to get around Hong Kong and learn as much about the culture as possible. Trust yourself and motivate yourself to try new things and meet people from different backgrounds and experiences...."
Emma Gardephe The University of Texas at Austin
"I think I grew up on this program. You learn how to handle yourself in a variety of diverse environments. It helped me become more confident, more self-assured and it will definitely give you a better perspective on what it means to be a global citizen and will give you a more objective view of American culture.

A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned how to live outside of my comfort zone. In that sense, I feel as if I had learned to live in general. Having to rely on and have faith in yourself to navigate a foreign culture safely matures one drastically. I feel as if Russia made a man out of me. Also, having to actively take advantage of any amount of free time an..."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"WOW. I got to see some incredible places and experience some amazing people. It was life-changing, worth every penny. Take advantage to go abroad while you have this much time off b/c you won't get this much again until you retire. Travelling before & after the program & taking advantage of CouchSurfing & the Eurail was the best..."
Jose G The University of Texas at Austin
"I had an amazing experience abroad, and despite some of the problems that I had with the organization and location of the program, I had a great time. It was definitely a learning experience because I was one of the only students that spoke French so I got a LOT of practice asking the locals questions. If I had to do it again, I..."
