Summer 2025 Participant
It would be very helpful for future students especially those interested going to East Asia to learn the train and subway routes as they can be complicated for students who are from small towns.

Summer 2022 Participant
Being able to intern at a food bank was very rewarding. I got to learn a lot about the specific social issues Singaporeans face on the daily, and I'm happy I got to help in some way.

Summer 2022 Participant
From this program, I learned that it is okay to be selfish. I mean that although I was there for an internship and there to work, I was also in a different country, so it's okay to want to have fun, and it's okay to want to go out and experience new things. In the beginning, I was focused on working and making sure I created a good impression of myself, which is okay. Still, I realized I was missing out on creating memories with the other students. So go to work and do the responsibilities you need to, but also make time to have fun and explore the country. Time went slow initially, but as the program ended, it was very bittersweet, and I wanted to cherish every second I had left with my friends.
