Amanda Mapes Northern Illinois University
"I learned so much about the history and the culture of the cities we visited, and I gained memories and friendships that will last a lifetime!"
A student Northern Illinois University
"I was able to gain better views on how companies work abroad and how the corporate culture changes how the company runs."
Kerrian M Northern Illinois University
"Besides the language component I think I have become a very independent person. Living in a foreign city without any friends takes you out of your comfort zone and makes you grow up pretty fast. Once I accepted that, I made friends easily and accepted the culture with open arms."
Milan A Northern Illinois University
"Experiencing the music, dance, and culture left me hungry for more. Jeremy is incredibly organized, which made for a smooth, safe, and amazing experience."
A student Northern Illinois University
"I'm a strong believer that study abroad teaches you more in one semester than you could learn in 4 years of college classes at your home institute. You learn about yourself, the world around you, other cultures, people, beliefs, etc. It's absolutely one of the best chances you have as an undergrad."
Anna R Northern Illinois University
"If I could rate my program 10 stars, I would. I just loved San Sebastian, the Basque culture, the area, the language, the trips, the courses, the fun and the people! My trip tripled my desire to continue to travel. I want to see the rest of the world now! I now have a much greater understanding of how many wonderful places there..."
