Program Reviews:
Fall 2019 Participant
My academic experience at UCC was very memorable. I got to learn from professors who were very passionate and knowledgeable about their subjects. UCC offers many specialized courses on Irish studies, which I would never have been able to take anywhere else. It made my stay so much more meaningful to learn about the history of the places I was visiting or the meaning behind some peculiarities of the culture.
Spring 2020 Participant
My favorite part was getting to know local students. I took a physics class in which I was the only non-Irish student and it was a great experience! I definitely recommend taking at least one class that is not specifically for international students.
Fall 2019 Participant
I loved the people that I was able to meet. I met other students from across the country and the world. The relationships I formed while studying abroad are an extra layer deep because I got to travel with the people that I was lucky enough to meet and room with. The opportunity to be immersed in Irish culture was also enhanced by joining a club that was very involved. They welcomed me with open arms and were excited to share their sport and way of life with me. It was such a unique experience I wouldn't take it back for anything!
