Study Abroad with WorldStrides
"I learned a lot, fell in love with the Costa Rican culture, and my Spanish language skills improved immensely."
Emily J University of Nebraska- Lincoln
"My study abroad experience was absolutely worthwhile! I had never been out of the United States prior to this summer, and all I want to do now is go back! Being surrounded by a new language, eating food that was different from and at different times of the day than I was used to, living with a local family and feeling welcomed a..."
Laura B The College of William and Mary
"Best 5 months of my life, I would give anything to go back. The friends I met I still keep in contact with and I'm very bad with keeping in contact with people when I'm not with them"
Colton L University of Colorado - Boulder
"Yes!"
Cody K Minnesota State University, Moorhead
"I learned a lot about myself and i truly did grow, you dont really notice it until you get back. I loved study abroad and it really opened my eyes to the world, which i know sounds cheesy but all the cliche lines are true! "
anna p St. Cloud State University
"I am much more confident in my spanish-speaking abilities. Since my program was only 5 weeks I wasnt able to fully envelop the language, but it was well worth it!! My experience made me more aware of the culture in many different aspects. Many things werent the same as back home, but adjusting wasnt too difficult. As a result, I..."
Hayley B Pittsburg State University
"By taking me out of my natural element, this experience has changed my life. "
Stephanie N Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
"Yes, despite the lack of preparation leading up to the trip through the American offices, the PRAGUE ISA OFFICE made the whole trip worthwhile. Personally, I am really frustrated that ISA Austin, Texas and the Study Abroad Office at ISU continue to make us respond to this trip, and I am ESPECIALLY disappointed that this survey n..."
Kathleen K Illinois State University

Dane J Ohio State University - Columbus
"Gained tons of information about colonialism "
Gwyneth T University of Nebraska- Lincoln
"It was definitely worth while for me. Although I did not do as well academically as I had hoped, I had an amazing time and met the most interesting people from all over the world. I've never been in an environment where being an American is a huge minority. It was very interesting to see what other people thought about America/A..."
Ali S University of Rhode Island
"Yes. I learned a lot of vocabulary and things about the language. I also saw some amazing places. I am going to be a French teacher and this will definitely help in knowing more about France as a whole."
Kaitlyn C Siena College
"Yes, but I would have chosen a more private and smaller program with less students all from the same school, and more opportunities for immersion in the language."
Christina A Ohio State University - Columbus

Aankita P Illinois State University
"Well, to be honest: I didn't enjoy Paris very much at all. I love taking the classes and meeting new people, but I found it very difficult to make friends with Parisians. The food was delicious at first, but the richness got to me after a while, and it's just a very expensive city. Okay... so, what did I like about it? St..."
Robert M University of Massachusetts - Lowell
"See things in a different and more global view."
Christopher D Illinois State University
"shortly after I arrived in Paris I was thinking to myself "what in the world am I doing here?" I went with no one I knew and knew no one when I got there. It didn't take long though to see exactly why I was there. I met so many different people from around the world and from various backgrounds and cultures. I got to experience ..."
Brent B University of Nebraska - Omaha

Joseph M West Texas A&M University
"totally worth it, the only thing that was a damper was my living situation which made everyday life hard. i have so many life expierences that i will never forget and it has taught me that i can do anything anywhere and not be afraid, i am excited to push myself further and be open to new expeirences and cutlures."
Chloe G Colorado State University
"I gained life experiences in traveling as well as interacting and dealing with various types of people from many different backgrounds. I am much more aware of cultural differences and respect them much more after being abroad. I've always wanted to live abroad for an extended period of time, and this experience solidified my de..."
Nicholas B The College of New Jersey
"Yes. The experiences I had will never be forgotten"
William C University of Tennessee - Knoxville
"It's more than worth it! I considered myself internationally aware prior to my abroad experience, but nothing can give you a true international perspective about the world, another country, and even about The United state of America until you experience it. It has truly changed me in a number of ways with how I view things, wit..."
Kathleen I Pittsburg State University
"I loved being abroad but I dont know if I could ever really live that far away from everyone I love and family. It was hard and towards the end when you start missing all the hollidays it gets harder. I loved how my spanish evolved quiker than I ever thought possible and Spain will always have a special place in my heart. "
Marci L Seattle University
"My experience in Spain was awesome, my roommate and I went to the same high school and due to this trip have planned a trip across much of Europe next summer. This trip really opens up the possibilities the world has to offer. To anyone considering traveling abroad, DO IT! It is an experience that is definitely worthwhile."
Garrett A Northern Arizona University
"I obviously gained a new appreciation for a language while being there but I think my favorite part of the whole experience was meeting new people. It helped me realize that it didn't really matter if I was sitting at my house in Texas or at a bar in Chile, people are so very much a like. Everyone just wants to be around peopl..."
