The program coordinators and assistants would set up social and cultural events each evening for the students to participate in. These were great because we learned a lot about Austria, but we also learned a lot about the cultures of the other students in the program.

There are many things that were my favorite about this program! The people you meet are incredible and from all over the world. The program has incredible accommodations, providing you with a nice apartment and great food. The program does an excellent job of helping you adjust and providing you with many opportunities to experience the best of Vienna! I would give everything about this program an excellent rating. They were kind and helpful in every way, but gave us room to do things on our own and on our own schedule.

My favorite part of the program was the student body. It was an international school so my classmates were from Russia, Indonesia, Australia, England, Peru, and so many more. Learning about other cultures from student who actually lived in the countries was really neat.

This program was the perfect mix of academics and social activities. The best part, other than being in the beautiful city of Vienna, was getting the opportunity to connect with students from over 30 different countries.

I really felt like I learned as much outside the classroom as I did in the classroom. The classes are structured very nicely and are challenging but definitely doable. The teachers provide a lot of great international perspective to topics you may have already taken classes on. We also had opportunities to learn about Vienna outside the classroom and the freedom to choose what events we wanted to do. I enjoyed the balance of having structure from school but freedom to do whatever I wanted in a foreign city outside of school.

The most rewarding part of the program was the final group projects in my classes. Working alongside students from around the world was incredible. Learning to balance our cultural norms and social cues was hard at first, but in the end extremely rewarding.

I had excellent experiences with both classes. I loved the professors and felt the course work was graded fairly and the expectations were fair as well. I enjoyed my classmates and got to work with students from Australia, Indonesia, Russia, France, United Kingdom, and Hong Kong to say the least. Definitely travel on the weekends and invest in your relationships with these new friends!
