"It was the most amazing experience of my life. I learned how much I take for granted in the United States, but more importantly how much my priorities have changed since being abroad. I now value family and friendships more than work and materialistic things. "
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"The EiAbroad program was all that I could have hoped for as I was looking to gain work experience to add to my resume and also experience the city. There were challenges at my internship, but that is to be expected. The apartment was very nice, I shared a room but with an awesome person who I am now besties with :) "

"While in Ireland, travel as much as you can. Traveling is easy and relatively inexpensive, both in the country and to the continent. The Irish are incredibly friendly, helpful, and witty.
