Program Reviews:
Spring 2016 Participant
Before traveling abroad, I didn't realize just how different their schooling systems were. I had to learn to adapt and had to work a lot harder to learn how their courses are set up while also learning the new material.

My favorite part of the program was being able to travel. Everything in Europe is so close and travel is extremely cheap. That combined with a three week Easter break allowed for many exciting opportunities to travel and experience many different cultures.

Meeting new people from different counties was probably the most rewarding. I was able to learn a lot of new things about a culture I had never experienced before while also teaching other people about what its like in the US.
