Academics Overall

**Overall educational experience:

Language Overall

**Language acquisition improvement?

Host Country Program Administration Overall

**On-site administration of your program:

**Please explain the program's strengths and weaknesses:

Arcadia staff seemed more concerned with the incoming Freshmen who were also in London but on a separate trip. The staff also seemed to blame Arcadia students for the failings of the professors, when most students made the same complaints.

Housing Overall

Living arrangements? (all that apply):

Apartment

**Housing satisfaction:

**Comment:

20 person flat. I lived in a room with two other girls. Very comfortable accomodations in Earls Court, London, SW10. Close to a tube station, and very nice overall.

Neighborhood was very safe, we enjoyed where we were very much.

Food Overall

**Food satisfaction:

**Comment:

I made my food myself.

Safety and Health Overall

**How well were health issues addressed through your program?

**Safety:

Money Overall

**How easily were you able to live on a student's budget?

General Assessment Overall

**Words of wisdom:

The internship makes this program. I would not trade my internship experience for anything at this point in my life.

**Overall satisfaction with your study abroad experience:

**Was your study abroad experience worthwhile?

I gained more from the experience than I can put into words. Before I left, I talked to friends who studied abroad and all they could say were positive things. I am in a very similar situation. All I can say about studying abroad is: go, do it, I have never met anyone who regretted their experience.
