Robert D Emerson College
"I gained so much experience, contacts, friends and academic experience. I had a great time."
SiegRoy Emerson College
"I think I gained a greater sense of independence. I learned who my real friends are. Being around different cultures and people from around the world broadened my understanding of humanity and politics, not to mention made me more self-critical, and more self-aware of my actions. It will also be hard for me to stay in one area t..."
KateNoe Emerson College
"I gained contacts, a possible job, experience- you're basically thrown into a real life situation with (hopefully) what you love to do. AWESOME program. Emerson has a great connection with the city of LA."

Chris C Emerson College
"I learned an enormous amount about the entertainment industry an education that couldn't have taken place in Boston. I also made many terrific contacts. In addition to my internship I had 3 classes so I could graduate on time. It was hard but doable. I feel I might have gotten more from the program with less class work howev..."
Zapata Emerson College
"I think I've said enough times how amazing it was and how much I gained from this experience, so I'll just say YES, it was worthwhile and beyond anything I could've expected, imagined or hoped for."
Jackie Emerson College
"One of the most important decisions of my life. I have a real perspective on the world that i didn't have before, and I am more independent after traveling through foreign countries on my own. The Castle is like a home base, so you get a comfortable home feeling as well as the ability to see the hotspots of Europe-- the best of ..."
Zachary F Emerson College
"Although it was a great deal of work balancing an internship and classes, the program provided me with an inside networking tool to begin my career on after graduation. This was a great program that was completely worthwhile and one that I would recommend to any Emerson student pursuing a job in the entertainment industry."
Jeff W Emerson College
"I learned so much from my intern site. I would recommend the program to anyone. DO IT!"
Jennifer S Emerson College
"If you truly want an experience that brings you out of your comfort zone, then this is it 100%. You will need humility and modesty for this experience because you will make an ass of yourself alot (unless you can know Chinese and will understand what people are saying). You cant be a delicate little flower during this program...."
Cosco Emerson College
"Very worthwhile. I grew so much when coming out of my comfort zone. The friendships I made with travel buddies are so deep and special. My mind was opened."
Caitlin G Emerson College
"Going to the Kasteel was the best experience of my entire life. When I think back on it, I feel almost heartbroken because I miss it so much. If you're going to go, the only thing you need to be concerned about, is how badly you will miss it. It was absolutely perfect. "

np Emerson College
"It was an experience that pretty much any kind of person would absolutely love and find to be so much more than worthwhile. I gained a lot of cultural knowledge and learned a lot about myself, made a lot of friends and had a ton of once-in-a-lifetime experiences."
Danson Emerson College
"Going to the castle was the best decision I've ever made in my life. Every single person experiences it differently, from where they go during weekend trips to what they do during academic excursions and while at the castle, to what they study in class, so other people's experiences won't prepare you for what will happen when yo..."
Katie E Emerson College
"It was a fantastic experience overall. I fell in love with the country, the films, and with a girl, with whom I am now planning on living. In fact, I almost didn't leave there in July."
