Important Dates and Deadlines
No important dates configured."I learned to say yes to every experience that might put me out of my comfort zone."
Robert R Temple University
"I learned how to be by myself and take control of my own choices. I was also able to step up and be a leader while making friends along the way. "
Carlee C Temple University
"I learned so much during my time in Quito. Becoming a part of daily life in the city taught me more about how people live outside of the country than I could have ever imagined. On the other hand, I did not have the best host family experience. The accommodations were incredible but I had very high expectations of living with an..."
Maggie G Temple University
"Absolutely"
Juli S Temple University
"It was incredibly worthwhile. I left Spain a confident Spanish speaker with a good cultural sense of the country. I made great friends, saw incredible nature and man made wonders, and had a blast. Absolutely would not trade my semester in Oviedo for anything."
Sug K Temple University
"I guess I should start off by saying I did not have the typical study abroad experience. I struggled with a lot before and during the program. There were definitely things about the location that didn't work out for me - I struggled to adjust to the food, I found it hard to make friends who were not in my group, I got bored very..."
A student Temple University
"An incredible appreciation and deep love of Spanish culture. Drastic language improvement. Completely worthwhile."
Matthew B Temple University
"I can't count what I gained from this program - myriad memories were formed, as well as a really great grasp on the Spanish language and culture. I wish I could've spent two semesters in Oviedo. "
Amy F Temple University
"I gained a whole different perspective on the culture and it was totally worthwhile"
A student Temple University
"I learned that I love America and its culture more than I'd thought. Spaniards in the north are fairly judgmental, but Oviedo is super cheap and has so many things to do... There are a myriad of bars and cafés and there's a train and bus station to travel around."
Dave F Temple University
"I learned a lot about other cultures that let me look at my own life as an American from a different perspective. As my first experience out of the country, I would say it was definitely worthwhile."
fiona.galzarano Temple University
"There's so much in the response to that. I gained perspective, inspiration, adaptability, friends, memories etc. I was very worthwhile I would do it again if the opportunity came to me. "
Nick S Temple University
"This is the most rewarding experience of my life to date. I will never forget the people I met and the art I created while in Ghana. This program is one of the best around not only because the experiences provided by you but because it is a chance to fully immerse yourself in a culture and live as a Ghanian not just a tourist. M..."
Dana M Temple University
"I gained confidence. Confidence I could speak another language. Confidence I could make friends with locals. Confidence I could travel away from home by myself."
A student Temple University
"I gained confidence. Confidence in my Chinese speaking skills. Confidence with making new friends. Confidence I can spend time away from home. "
A student Temple University
"This program allowed me to obtain a greater appreciation for life and the environment. It certainly was worthwhile, however, this program must be experienced first hand to fully understand."
hpucilowski Temple University
"Being an engineering student, it's near impossible to attend a typical five month study abroad program while in a four year program. The GREEN Program was able to give me that once in a lifetime opportunity to take a condensed study abroad program for an unforgetable trip in something of interest. The trip was honestly somethi..."
Seth S Temple University
"The GREEN Program was truly an amazing experience that most students are not lucky enough to be a part of. This program filled me with excitement that I had lost in previous years, and began to fill my life with adventure once again. It was an experience that everyone should be able to have at some point in their life; it opens ..."
Philip L Temple University
"Commitment to society, teams, and associations means selfless practices in moments of action, in order to honor the legacy of traditions and progress the current state. "
A student Temple University
"Learned different languages and cultures I normally would not have learned. "
Afshan H Temple University
"I learned just how independent I am and that stripping down to the basics is the most wonderful way to live. It was arguable the most worthwhile thing I've ever done."
Dana B Temple University
"This was my first time going abroad so it was really cool to be in, let alone LIVE in, another country. I liked seeing how other people lived and what their culture and customs are like. I really appreciate that I got to meet people from all over the world, not just Australia. I would say that this trip was certainly worthwhile...."
A student Temple University
"Definitely a worthwhile experience, and I encourage everybody to do it. You will have a bad time if you don't put yourself out there and attempt to embrace yourself in the culture and meet people. But if you do, you really do learn a lot about yourself and others, as well as get more of an open mind. Definitely recommended, Rome..."
Olya B Temple University
"I learned a lot of German. Arriving in Berlin before the program I was almost helpless in finding a hostel, and I could hardly communicate. When I returned to Berlin at the end, everything was so much easier because I could really speak such better German. Definitely worthwhile."
Lucas K Temple University
"Studying abroad in Rome completely changed my life. I gained a huge amount of confidence, learned so much about myself, and met so many amazing people from all over the world. The worst part about studying abroad was getting on the plane to come home! "
