Spring 2025 Participant
I found it incredibly rewarding to experience not just one new culture and perspective, but many. Spending time internationally allowed me to expand my worldview.

Spring 2025 Participant
My favorite of studying abroad was the friendships that I made with students from all over the globe. The University of Reading did a fabulous job ensuring that we were acclimated to English life and hosted events that caused me to meet some of my now very best friends.

Spring 2025 Participant
I found my course load to be very academically rigorous. I had to learn how to structure my studying differently. I am proud of the grades I made as well as the skills that I learned!
