Winter Break 2025 Participant
It was rewarding to go to class and learn about what we would do that day, whether it was a tour or a music performance, I found it helpful to go into the experience with background knowledge. It made the experiences even better and I was able to pay attention to certain details I was expecting, but also gave me more time to just listen and absorb the content.

Winter Break 2025 Participant
Perhaps most importantly, I learned how to figure things out myself. This was my first time traveling to Europe, and my first time traveling at all without my family or a very structured group of friends or people I already knew, so this program really taught me a lot of life skills when it comes to traveling. For example, my suitcase was left behind in the Kansas City airport, so I not only learned that I should have packed more clothes in my carry-on backpack, but also how to problem solve, contact airlines, and ask for help (plus how important travel insurance is!). In Europe, I had to learn how to use public transportation, and I had to learn how to get along with other students I barely knew. But everything worked out for the better, and I absolutely came out of the program with more friends and incredible experiences than I went into it with!

Winter Break 2023 Participant
Studying abroad is feasible for first-generation students! I am so glad I took the risk and went through with this opportunity.
