Program Reviews:
Summer 2024 Participant
I found the depth of cultural immersion extremely rewarding. I love to travel and learn with my family, but with SELF and BLP I got a much deeper experience. I feel more knowledgeable about Slovene culture than the cultures of the other countries I've visited because the program really encourages you to think deeper about the nuances of the culture and the country's history.

Summer 2025 Participant
The most rewarding part of this program was how much I learned about myself. Being immersed in a different culture pushed me out of my comfort zone and helped me become more adaptable, independent, and confident in unfamiliar situations.

Summer 2026 Participant
The major thing I walked away with from this trip was a broader perspective on what industry looks like in other countries. It really challenged my perspectives on what a successful business looks like outside of the United States.
