"On top of the obvious language knowledge, I was able to gain more self confidence in my ability to function outside of my standard environment. Being able to travel on my own was especially gratifying and exciting. Now I am 100% certain that I could travel around France and properly communicate with the locals. "
Adrianna C Texas A&M University - College Station
"I learned a lot about myself and my eyes were opened wide by friends from all over the world. I advanced in my knowledge and skills of the French language and made memories that I will be reliving for the rest of my life."

Stephen K Texas A&M University - College Station

"Seriously, go to Costa Rica with SOL. I went expecting a little fun and a lot of school, and I left having the time of my life (and 20 new best friends). It's the most well organized and fast-paced program I've ever been in, and everyone really cares. The program directors and host families I dealt with are not just there for a ..."
Katie K Texas A&M University - College Station
