A Look Back
| * If you could do it all over again, would you choose the same program? | Yes |
| * What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile? | My study abroad experience was fantastic. I learned so much about myself and the European culture. I was able to travel while studying and see as much of the city as I desired. I have since been back to London two times and can't get enough. I would love to study abroad again in the future. |
