Stirling, Scotland is absolutely incredible. My favorite part of the program was getting to meet people from ALL over the world and forming connections with all different people. This program allows you to go out of your comfort zone and form friendships with people from Scotland as well as other places.

My favorite part of my study abroad experience was the accessibility I had to be able to cheaply travel to other countries while I was there. There was always plenty to do in the city I lived in, but I was never limited to staying in just one place the whole semester. I also loved the freedom I had abroad. It is a different level of freedom compared to moving away to college, you're completely independent and alone. This seemed scary at first, but it wasn't long until I became familiar with the discomfort of being so far from everyone and everything I have known, and the best part was that everyone else around you was experiencing the same feelings as you. Studying abroad for even just a semester shaped how I view my age and maturity because I feel as though I became an adult and my own person the moment I touched down in Scotland.

I really loved the experience of being immersed into the school and the culture through the accommodation. I felt that I got the best experience through meeting lifelong friends in the clubs and activities on campus.
