"The freedom and exhilaration of being where I always wanted to be, doing what I wanted to do under the beautiful Australian sun was great and well worth the wait. I'm angry that the chance to stay longer was taken away from me but the experience has made me set to go back one day. I don't feel the same freedom now that I did t..."
Micah L The University of Texas at Austin
"The program was worthwhile because I felt it offered the means to become integrated with the Italian people. This integration is possible in cities like Rome, Venice and Florence, but difficult without the proper guidance and timing. "
Christopher C The University of Texas at Austin
"improved chinese"
Connor D The University of Texas at Austin
"I studied Classics in school, so living in Rome for two months was a dream come true. I am doing my student teaching right now for Latin; therefore, I am able to share my pictures and experience with my students. Rome was everything I wanted it to be and more. Studying abroad is something everyone should do."
Kara K The University of Texas at Austin

"DEFINITELY I WOULD NOT CHANGE A THING..."
CINDY T The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned a lot about myself and how I react in unusual circumstances. I felt like I grew a lot as a person, and made great friends!"
Samantha T The University of Texas at Austin
"I am more independent and confident--if I can figure out how to navigate and survive in a city where I hardly speak the language, I can sure as hell do anything I need to do here in America. It motivated me to learn French as well as I can, and it made me realize that there really are foreign people in the world--Americans tend ..."
Elise F The University of Texas at Austin
"It was definitely worthwhile! "
Melissa T The University of Texas at Austin
"The things that you learn about life, the world and yourself are inexplicable, and different for every person in every location. Do it for yourself, and you won't regret i."

Hannah G The University of Texas at Austin

Natalie Y The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes."
Lyndsey R The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes. I've always wanted to study in Italy, and my experience was unforgettable and unique. There are some things that I would have liked to change, but that is the case with any program that you do. I am more independent and cultured because of it."
Lauren J The University of Texas at Austin
"YES!!!"
Christi D The University of Texas at Austin
"I’m torn by this question because in some ways my study abroad experience was worthwhile, but in some ways it wasn’t. Having already traveled around Africa, I think if I was given the opportunity to choose again, I might’ve preferred an exchange program. For the amount of money my family paid, I wish I had more cultural immersio..."
Ashley W The University of Texas at Austin
"Academically I would have changed what classes I had taken but culturally and socially I had a great experience in Rio de Janeiro. "
Verónica L The University of Texas at Austin
"I wish I would have been more exposed to Ticos my own age rather than only Americans. I did not know I was going to be placed in a school of Americans."
Vanessa M The University of Texas at Austin
"It is very hard to describe the turkish culture. You need to go there, spend a few months and you will be amazed by the beauty of the culture and people"
Radu B The University of Texas at Austin
"Since returning I have continued to learn Spanish. I learned to be more open minded when dealing with people and situations. "
Travis N The University of Texas at Austin
"absolutely. "
Amanda R The University of Texas at Austin

Kenzie T The University of Texas at Austin

"My knowledge of Italian language and culture increased immensely. Studying abroad made me want to travel more and learn more languages and experience more new things in general."
Monika W The University of Texas at Austin
"It has made me a global citizen. It has left me with an international state of mind. I can't really describe how this experience has changed me in a short summary. You just have to go see for yourself. "
