Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."My Chinese ability definitely improved while I was here, and I think I opened up a little more. I was pretty shy coming here, but you're forced to become friends with these people and that means opening yourself up. It was definitely a worthwhile experience."

"How to be in an English Language classroom and learning about local cultures. It was worth it every step of the way. As someone who is now on the JET program, the Teaching English section is used often for me. "
Hayleigh Miller Central Michigan University
"I learned to be SO much more independent. I got lost almost everyday (I'm not very good with directions) but every day was an adventure.

"I learned to value and appreciate differences, in culture, food and living. I learned that a different way of doing something might actually work better, and to slow down and relax."

"One of the biggest skills I gained through my travels is my ability to adapt. I know how to adapt to different surroundings, communicate through language barriers and interact with different cultures. The ability to adapt is so important in a work environment."
Taylor A Central Michigan University
"Studying abroad in Segovia expanded my world view and exposed me to another culture other than my own. I gained a lot of knowledge through classes and excursions that exposed me to different cultural sites and cities of Spain. This program enabled me to become fluent without any lack of confidence when speaking Spanish."
Jesse S Central Michigan University
"I became much more confident in Segovia. In the States, I was always the meek one that was afraid to speak up for herself, but being in Segovia, where everyone is so frank and easygoing allowed me to become more assertive."
Amie T Central Michigan University
"I learned so much about myself as an individual from my study abroad experience. Not only am I more confident in myself and my abilities but I'm more open-minded to new things. Studying abroad really opened my eyes as to how much is really out there and how much more there is to see. "
