Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."I believe that study abroad was worth it. I loved that i was able to travel, eat all the local foods, meet new people, and make great memories. It is never what you expect but take it as it comes and don't build up or imagine great things in your mind because it is just normal. I think that many think "Wow I am going to Europe!..."

"This was by far the most rewarding experiences of my life. Not only did it boost my confidence in myself, but it accelerated my learning and changed my outlooks on many different aspects in life. "
Pamela N New Mexico State University
"I feel that studying abroad was the best decision I have made so far in my college career. I never would have realized how much understanding crosses cultural barriers. I learned much more about European history, culture, and politics than from any class. I also made a point to not surround myself with American students to get a..."

"My study abroad experience was definately worth while. I went to study abroad in England on my own, not knowing a single person upon arrival. I had to learn the ways of the country and meet new people. I backpacked through Europe for four weeks with four other exchange students. I realized that I was a person capable of more tha..."

"Yes. I became more mature and learned to appreciate another culture. I was able to see the world from another point of view. I was able to know how people from another part of the world live and interact with each other."

"I think I am more mature than before. It is great to get to know another culture. I loved Spain. Sudents must be aware it is different, but you must open you mind and know it is a different place and for that it is not better or worse. i loved my experience! "

"I feel like I know more about myself now. I know that sounds cliche but I feel like I have a better understanding of what I want to do in the future and what I enjoy doing now. I now know that I can stray from my family and seize opportunities I didn't think I could take before. I have experience in my work of study due to my in..."

"It was above and beyond what I expected and I had extremely high expectations to begin with. I was nervous about being so far from home for that length of time but it flew by and before I knew it I was having to come home and leave the friends that I will continue to keep in touch with that I met here. "

"Yes! I gained a different perspective on life in general and learned a lot about many different cultures."
mc New Mexico State University
"It was definitely worthwhile; I gained cultural knowledge and life experience-more within one semester than I ever had over the span of years. I cannot believe how many beautiful landmarks,gardens, parks, architecture, and natural wonders I have seen in so many places concentrated in one semester. I also learned notably more Spa..."

"I gained cultural knowledge that cannot be taught in a class room environment, but from actually living in/with a specific culture. I feel that studying abroad has helped me view more of the world, and now I am more conscience of the people and places around me. I have also come to value more things that I took for granted in th..."
Jessica R New Mexico State University
"There is not one part of the experience that I felt was not worth while. I was able to touch people and was touch by so many more. What I learned in a few months, could not have been taught inside a classroom environment. This was not just a summation of my undergrad experience, but my life's experience. I have a wider view of m..."

"Study abroad gave me a clearer picture of who I am and what I want out of life then the four years I spent at university. I am now more driven to meet my personal goals. I now know what those goals are. I feel that study abroad has given me the tools and independence to really expand my universe. "
