Florence, A Great Place For AnyoneThis study abroad experience brought out the best in me. As corny as that is. It opened my eyes to things I had never chose to focus on. Volunteering abroad also allowed me to be more grateful. |

One Month Abroad In Florence, I Want To Go Back!I did not give it 5 stars because of a couple major things: the mosquitos and lack of screens in our apartment; the mandatory language class; and most importantly because the study abroad was only a month long |

Best Semester Of My Life! Ciao Firenze!There isn't enough room to insert my comments on how great it was! Truly it was the best decision I have ever made! My future plans now directly revolve around culutural impacts of my reseearch and I have applied for a grant to return to Italy! |

Italy: La Vita E Bella If You're Prepared!I learned so much about myself and about how I live when I have to be my own support structure. I am more independent now, and I think I have a much better idea of how to think about culture and about what it is to be in a culture and an active citizen of the world. My eyes have really opened up to how much there is to experienc... |

Isa Florence Is The Worst Program.no. I didn't learn about new cultures living with Americans and the Italians all treated us like pieces of meat or ignorant foreigners which most of the group was. I enjoyed traveling on my own outside of Florence and meeting up with people from my home institution in other programs but wish I would have chosen a different progr... |

Florence Changed My Life!ISA helped me to feel comfortable and at home in Florence almost immediately upon arrival. They didn't leave anything out of our orientation and offered numerous activities throughout the semester to get us involved with them in Florence and during our excursions. From the moment I got my acceptance letter til the time I flew ... |

La Bella Vida In Firenze, ItaliaThere are so many things that I gained from going abroad (to many in my opinion to even begin to discuss). It was the most memorable and best thing that I have ever been given the privilege of doing. I encourage everyone to go somewhere and really try to assimilate to the culture. Your life will not be the same. |

Florence Is Like Home To Me.Yes! |

Being Submerged In Renaissance Art Is Something You Can Only Get In Florence. Amazing.Yes. I gained worldly experiences that can only be gained by getting out of the United States. However important this may be to me, I did fall slightly behind in my schooling back home. |

Trouble Integrating Into The CultureIt taught me a lot but I went through a lot of difficult experiences to get to the point where I grew. |

(No Title)Worth every penny!!! My experience taught me so much about myself and about another culture. I loved Florence and can't wait to go back. Made me want to look deeper into working abroad once I have my degree. |

(No Title)It was the best four months of my life. I gained a better global viewpoint and loved experiencing a completely different culture. |
