Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."I would study abroad in New Zealand again a million times over. My experiences are cemented in my mind as some of the greatest times of my life.

"Yes. Everything was worthwhile. Every up. Every down. Every dollar spent on passport pictures, postage, financial advice, fried cheese sandwiches, AA batteries.... and the list goes on and on. It can't be summed up in this survey. What I learned and how I changed and progressed is all particular to me and me alone. You will have..."

"It is hard to put into words just how incredible my study abroad experience was. Throughout my four months of living and studying in Europe I experienced situations that were challenging but helped me gain a new sense of confidence and taught me alot about myself. I learned that it is important to keep an open mind about everyth..."
Eileen C Providence College
"Definitely worthwhile. I gained a lot more independence, because at PC (and probably at most colleges) you are living apart from your parents but you still live in this bubble community where you're on a campus and everything you need is right there. Living for the first time in a city where I was forced to take public transport..."
Stephen T Providence College
"Yes it was definitely worthwhile. I will probably never again get the opportunity to travel all over Europe and visit a variety of countries in the same time period. I am much more aware of different cultures and customs. I also feel I am a seasoned traveler at this point and can navigate any train station or airport alone. My a..."
