Vincent Andrew Mckamie, Winter Break 2013 Participant
A study abroad experience, as a whole, is a great opportunity to not only learn about another culture, but it's a great way to learn about yourself and to bond and network with your classmates and faculty members.

Laurin Ashley Wright, Winter Break 2016 Participant
I truly enjoyed our ability to interact with the student hosts from UCR throughout our program, both in the classroom and during our group activities.

Winter Break 2017 Participant
Definitely be able to handle change. No day will go according to plan and a lot of compromise is needed.
