Program Reviews:
Audrey A Phillips, Summer 2018 Participant
I learned that even though the culture shock is real, you should just go for it. Getting out of my comfort zone was the hardest thing for me, but in the end I knew more about myself and the culture I was in.

Summer 2019 Participant
Our final project and essay allowed me to step outside of my comfort zone. We had to talk to local Italians and I spoke to some of the nicest people I've ever met that week. I'm glad I got a true sense of what it's like to live in Rome.

Katherine A Staab, Summer 2017 Participant
My favorite part of the program was being able to learn in small group of students with the same interests and major as me.
