Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."Firstly, my French improved ten-fold. I have always longed to travel but now it is more of a priority. I also have a much better understanding of France and how France views itself and other countries. I also have a much better perception of the US and how lucky we are to be Americans."
Maureen L SUNY - College at Oswego
"100% "
Matthew D SUNY - College at Oswego
"Anyone who says they didn't get something out of an experience like this; you can tell that the problem wasn't the program. It was the person. If you don't get something out of travelling you're not a traveler and just stay home! "
Zachary H SUNY - College at Oswego
"This experience was most definitely worthwhile! I never thought that I could learn as many things as I did in simply four months. I was surrounded by so many different languages and cultures all the time. I learned so much about myself and so much about the world. My future plans have definitely changed. As soon as I finish univ..."
Vanessa R SUNY - College at Oswego
"I gained independence and maturity from my program. I learned an insane amount about other cultures, but mostly my own. It did not change my future plans, only enhanced them, I wish to help others and will continue to do so with my greater life experience"
Marissa K SUNY - College at Oswego
"My study abroad experience was very worthwhile and I am very thankful I did it. I took a class called cross-cultural psychology and it was a great impact on my learning experience and I highly recommend it to every one. I gained independence from living on my own in another country "
Marissa K SUNY - College at Oswego
"Living in France and traveling throughout Europe will be an experience that I will never forget. Although there were some downsides to the program, the friends that I made and the experiences that I had were well worth it. Furthermore, Nice is the most beautiful place I have ever been, and for that I will always be thankful to h..."
Monique G SUNY - College at Oswego
"yes. very worthwhile for the first time studying abroad"
Bailey R SUNY - College at Oswego
"I think this program improved my language skills a lot, but mostly my level of independence. I would absolutely do it all again. Somewhere around January I wanted to go home, but I didn't give up, and by July I didn't want to leave home and go back to that place with no Kürbiskernöl. I have to go back, to see my friends I left b..."
Andrei M SUNY - College at Oswego
"Yes and no. The experience was great, but for the money and the debt I owe now, It's not worth that."

Teddy S SUNY - College at Oswego
"Self-confidence"
Pamela A SUNY - College at Oswego
"I learned what it's like to struggle academically. Studies have always come naturally to me, but sitting in a classroom where the students are debating a text and you can't keep up is the surest way to humble you. It was an ongoing project to remind myself that just because I don't speak as well as the French kids (hey, who coul..."
Christine B SUNY - College at Oswego

Lauren W SUNY - College at Oswego
"I gained a lot from this study abroad experience. I gained negative feelings towards the country of France and its people. I gained jealousy towards Europeans that have such a great convenience to travel. I gained great experiences in the countries I visited in Europe, outside of France. I gained great memories with some great f..."
Nadine K SUNY - College at Oswego
"Worthwhile, definitely. My wallet hurts, my liver hurts. I've seen a lot, experienced a lot, and met great people. However, the classes were a mockery to education."
Andrew R SUNY - College at Oswego

Ryan R SUNY - College at Oswego
"My study abroad experience was definitely worthwhile. As cliche as it sounds, I learned so much about myself and I think I am a better stronger person because of my experiences in Europe. After my semester abroad and working with my home international education office I think I am going to try and work with Higher Ed. internatio..."
