Study Abroad with WorldStrides
"I think it was. It was a refreshing get away from American society and I really enjoyed that aspect of it"
William A Trinity University
"OF COURSE"
Amanda S University of Vermont
"I LOVED STUDYING ABROAD. It was the best decision I've ever made. I am so much more in touch with who I am and what I want out of life...being away really forces you to focus on that because you can be whoever you want to be. This experience also helped me to overcome any sort of timidity about meeting new people and trying n..."
Emily H University of Denver
"This experience was worth every penny, it put me out of my comfort zone and made me actually think about things and look at another culture and way of life that was foreign to me. It taught me to become more dependent on my own knowledge and instincts rather than relying on others and i gained confidence in my own language skill..."

"My study abroad experience was extremely worthwhile. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I learned so much about myself as a person and how I react to other people who are not anything like me (Americans and foreigners alike). I learned how to deal with difficult situations on my own where I'm outside my comfort zone (being shy sp..."
Brittany S University of Arkansas - Fayetteville
"Studying in Ireland was unique for me for a lot of reasons. In the field of history, it was fantastic because I would learn about something, like a castle for instance, and then take a train or a bus and go see the castle. The history was all right there, which was great for someone like me. It was also interesting being one of ..."
Sundee P Knox College
"More than worhtwhile... an experience to learn about the world and my place in it. An amazing city, a well-structured program, and a good university. "
Elisabeth B
"Every single aspect of my experience abroad was worthwhile. Even when I was pick pocketed and had to apply for a new passport in a country whose language I did not speak. Everything was a learning experience for me. Being able to experience different cultures is not something everyone gets to do. I had the opportunity to go to M..."
Josie D Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
"The five months I spent abroad were probably the best five months of my life. I gained so much out of studying abroad that it is hard to put it into words. I think that everyone should take the opportunity to study abroad at some point during their college career. You will not be sorry that you did, I promise!"
Amber M University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh
"Better practice with Spanish, and the opportunity to try things I felt I would never do (i.e. bungee jump)"
Ben O University of Arkansas - Fayetteville
"My experience was more than just worthwhile, it is part of what defines who I am today. The lessons I learned from being on my own 18000 miles away from home for 6 months are invaluable. I matured tenfold as a person and learned how to interact with people from all over the world, whether it be Malaysia, Europe, Africa, Australi..."
Karl R Purdue University
"My study abroad experience definitely opened me up to new cultures and allowed me to get to know people very different from me. I feel as though I have grown as a person in many ways. I learned that I can live on my own in another country completely across the world. I can adapt to and be successful in new surroundings. My futur..."
Chelsea E University of New Hampshire
"I am applying to jobs over in Australia and have the travel bug to go everywhere now. The world is so much bigger then I knew!"
Courtney H Texas A&M - College Station
"I thank my experience abroad for pushed me into new experiences allowing me to become more independent, flexible, and cultured! "
Meredith B University of New Hampshire
"My experience was more than worthwhile. I changed as a person as I became more independent, and open to new experiences. I also share memories with those I met in Australia that will last a lifetime. If I had the opportunity to go again, I would not even think about not going. "
Jenny D University of Maryland - College Park
"I learned a great deal through studying in Australia. I learned to slow down a little and enjoy life, and I truly gained a different perspective by studying where I was an outsider. I had a very valuable internship where I realized that I would like to continue event planning, public relations and other writing opportunities. "
Meghan F Syracuse University
"The experience was way worthwhile and I miss New Zealand so much that my heart aches when I look at my photos. It is a part of me and in my future I plan on backpacking the rest of the country I didn't have time to see. I understand so much more after three months in another country, all my problems here before I left seem so sm..."
Kristen F Florida Gulf Coast University
"Studying in Spain for six weeks was really more like a teaser for me. I realized that I wish I would have done a semester, because I was by no means ready to leave at all. My language skills improved exponentially as well as my cultural awareness. I broke out of my shell and met some of my best friends all within a matter of six..."
Taylor G Oklahoma State University - Stillwater
"Going through the Education Abroad Network: Study Australia was the best thing ever and I really think it is the only way to go to Australia. They set up so many exciting things and really make sure that you are ready and that you don't miss out on anything. I learned a lot about myself and how to be more independent. I went ..."
Rachel J University of Wisconsin - Madison
"Studying abroad was the best decision I have made as a college student. It has increased my cultural awareness and independence and it was amazing to be immersed in a foreign culture for an extended period of time. I was able to both study and intern while abroad, and it was fascinating to compare the culture to American culture..."
Amy L University of Wisconsin - Madison
"I had such a great experience in Thailand that I am looking at ways to go back after graduation. My semester really enlightened me on a region of the world with a rich culture that is undergoing rapid development."
Maren P Augustana College
"Studying abroad was the greatest decision i have ever made. I was able to see places that i had dreamed about and met so many great people. It is truly an enlightening experience because you get completely out of your comfort zone. Traveling is definitely a top priority now and i want to get out and see more of the world, meet n..."
Leopold A College of Charleston
"My past 6 months in Shanghai was the best time of my life. I fell in love with the city and the interesting people. My time in Shanghai has caused me to look at things in a very different way and has changed my interests and the direction I want to go in greatly. I would really love to go back to Shanghai after graduating to pur..."
Susan M University of Maryland - College Park
"I believe studying abroad is an experience every college student should partake in. The thought of leaving my friends to travel halfway around the world for four months was something I was a little apprehensive about. I was scared to go because I'm a very shy person but now that I've been am so glad that didn't stop me. Studying..."
Claire W Auburn University
"I learned how to be independent, flexible, spontaneous. I learned how to be a good planner, learned how to be good with directions, schedule, budget, and adapt to my surroundings."
