Program Reviews:
Laura E Carlson, Summer - One Month 2015 Participant
The way that my group bonded and became friends in a short amount of time was very rewarding. Having a group to lean on, study with, and, of course, travel with on the weekends helped out a lot. We were all very different people that probably would never be together at KU, but this program pushed us out of our little boxes and exposed us to people that made the whole experience more rewarding.

Jorge O Salamanca, Summer - One Month 2016 Participant
I learned a lot of historical, artistic, and cultural elements of all the places I visited, especially Florence. People can be able to see firsthand artworks as well as architectural sites created by famous artists of the Renaissance.

Tesla Rindels, Summer - One Month 2015 Participant
Study abroad! It is a life changing experience that I wouldn't trade for the world.
