"My study abroad experience was rather good, despite some odd happenings. Although I hadn't realized it, my acceptance for differences has grown, and I didn't realize this until returning and talking with people who have never been abroad. I now feel that everyone should spend some time abroad, not as a tourist, but actually livi..."

"It truly is difficult to say how it changed me, because I wouldn't say that I have changed in any profound way. I am just simply more aware of different modes of thinking, and different ways to go about ones day. I would say I have only changed in little way e.g. I will probably take more pleasure and time out of some of my futu..."

"After being here I will be returning in the Fall for grad school! It changed what I wanted in life and showed me the path to take in the next step of my life which starts the day I return to the US. The things I learned here couldn't have come at a better time as I'm graduating and moving on!"

Christoph J New Mexico State University
"My study abroad experience was worthwhile. It was challenging living in a new city by myself and not knowing anyone. I had to reach out and intentionally look for things to do, places to practice Spanish, and people to meet. It was difficult but so rewarding and so worth it. I've improved my Spanish skills and would like to move..."

Ana S New Mexico State University
"The trip was fantastic from a cultural viewpoint. While the onsite Program contact was great, the cost was very high for what we got out of it. I know now that I could have done the same trip on my own for a lot less money. That's why I wouldn't do it again through a study abroad program. "

"My Belizean experience was wonderful. It helped me to see how Americanized I am, now I am proud to be American...but traveling to a different country and immersing myself in a different culture has only helped me to become a better citizen of the globe. Were there incidents or situations that I could have done without, sure, the..."
