Program Reviews:
Summer 2017 Participant
This program taught me that its important to pack light! I traveled pretty light for the length of my program but there were some things i never touched. Its tricky getting luggage on public transportation in general and especially in foreign countries.

Cynthia Christine Marta, Summer 2013 Participant
There was a constant wide variety of interactions with people which is the most rewarding thing because that's what social work is focused on: interacting with people and exploring being human together.

Taylor Starling, Summer 2016 Participant
My favorite part of studying abroad in Italy was having the opportunity to interact and build friendships with locals.
