"I personally had a lot of hesitation going into this experience. For so long, I have wanted to teach English in Korea, but when I hopped on my plane, I was afraid that it wasn't going to feel right living there. I was wrong. I learned a ton about myself as a traveler/ an adult and about a culture that I love so dearly. The bigge..."

Living abroad definitely made me appreciate America, but also m..."
Ben B Georgia State University
"The abroad portion of my trip was the best. I got to do some soul searching and discover what it is I want from my life, friends, and what I need to change or accept about life. I would not have changed this program at all because it was my experience but I think if I were to do another study abroad I would not come to France. ..."

"My study abroad experience was amazing. Throw yourself into a foreign country, where you don't know the language or another person, and you'll surprise yourself.

"My study abroad experience in Russia were some of the best four months of my life. I'll never forget all the people I met and all the places I saw.
