"I look at cities in an entirely different way now--as living, breathing entities waiting to be discovered and unraveled. I came away from this program challenging my own beliefs and holding the statements of others to a higher standard. I found a community of smart, interesting, and intense people, some of whom I now consider tr..."

"Absolutely! I learned a lot about myself, made new friends with whom I will keep in touch for the rest of my life, improved my Spanish, learned a lot about Spanish art and culture, expanded my horizons through travel and new experiences, and made great connections with my host family."
Chelsea E Tufts University
"YEAH it was!! I gained so much knowlegde about SA, especially when I traveled during breaks. It really changed my perception of southern Africa"
Lauren K Tufts University
"I can't possibly sum up everything I've learned in a few sentences, but I will say that I have changed dramatically because of this program. I've realized that I've taken certain American offerings for granted, but also that there are other options to cultural aspects of America that I dislike. What's also great is the program l..."
Chelsey O Tufts University
"I made an amazing amount of friends from my home school and I'm looking forward to spending time with them on campus. "
Sarah L Tufts University
"I was amazed at the amount I gained academically. I had the opportunity for original research, for teaching, and to push myself in classes. I grew immensely on a personal level as well, because it allowed me to see myself from a different point of view and in new situations. I am most proud of my accomplishments while living ..."
Gabrielle B Tufts University
"I want to return to the Balkans, and I'm sure that I will. That changes my future plans, since I hadn't been sure before if I'd want to live abroad. I think I do want to spend some years in Belgrade now that I've been there."

Daniel M Tufts University
"Definitely, I think I went in a great year!"
Namibia L Tufts University
"My study abroad experience was absolutely worthwhile. It hasn't impacted my academic plans, but it did help me to feel more confident in my own abilities to travel and live alone, and it gave me the ability to see some fantastically, breathtakingly beautiful sites. "
Lisa T Tufts University
"I am having an amazing time in London, and I really appreciated this opportunity to explore my interests outside of academia. If you are considering going abroad and worried about leaving behind all the comforts of home and all the change you will have to go through, DON'T! Obviously you will experience all these things as wel..."
Rachel L Tufts University
"it was awesome."
Jesse G Tufts University
"I loved my experience but it taught me that I don't want to spend my life in the Middle East. And that I shouldn't have majored in International Relations. I learned so much about the culture and I definitely broadened my world view. And the food was the best ever."
Olivia P Tufts University

Gregory M Tufts University
"yes, I would like do it again..."
Mengting Y Tufts University
"My particular study abroad experience was not worthwhile, because I was expecting so much more from this program which did nothing but fail in every regard. I was highly disappointed. What this program DID teach, though, was self-sufficiency and the virtue of tremendous independence. If those are your objectives, by all means!..."
Nicole K Tufts University

Doreen N Tufts University
