Go To London, Study At Ucl

Go to London!! I had the most wonderful year at UCL. I didn't want to leave London, UCL, or the Dance Soc. I have plans to go back as soon as I am able, hopefully to study there- if not for a holiday. Academically, I was pushed to try different things, to consider different perspectives, to write differently, to incorporate ...

Tufts In London Was A Great Tourist Adventure With Very Limited Academic Rigor

Tufts in London was an extremely worthwhile experience on a personal level and has allowed me to develop lasting friendships.

My Home In London

My everything was completely altered by this program. UCL taught me how to read, write, and experience academia in an entirely different way than I did before. This experience taught me how to navigate a city, how to cook like a real person and not just a student, and how to act in clubs and pubs and at high tea. I learned th...

London: Forget About The Books, Bring Money Instead

It was absolutely worthwhile!! I didn't like my academic experience, but that has little to do with UCL and a lot to do with the British education system in general. London as a city is amazing, except for the miserable winter weather. There are tons of diverse and interesting people in London, from everyone in the world, so you...

London: The Experience Of A Lifetime!

My study abroad experience was definitely worthwhile; I learned a lot about myself, and experienced a lot of different cultures.

UCL was an amazing experience. To study in a world-renowned university in the heart of one of the world's most cultured and cosmopolitan cities is a privilege. My only wish is that the programme had lasted longer. I hope to return to UCL in the near future as a graduate student, and to relocate permanently to London.

My study abroad experience was worthwhile. I gained a fuller understanding of European culture due to actually seeing it all, and talking with students who live in those countries. The travel and the people you meet are certainly the best parts. Oh, and living in London - fantastic for theater goers. Its interesting to see a...

Best year of my life. If I had the chance to do it again, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

This program is amazing, and I highly recommend it! I wasn't very impressed with the academics, but the travel experiences and everything absolutely make up for it. This was the best year of my life and one of the best decisions I have ever made

I'm so glad I did this program. I fell in love with London, and I'm probably moving back there when I graduate. While I had already traveled all over Europe, it gave other people a chance to do that. I learned that their system of education works best for me, and I'm going to apply to grad school there. I got to explore the ...

Yes, it was very worthwhile. I gained a lot of perspective on how other cultures function (London especially, but also from travel to other countries in Europe).

My study abroad was completely worthwhile. I had the best time of my life and had some amazing academic and work experiences there; I was able to do things (such as work at Parliament) that I would never be able to do otherwise and my classes were really interesting with amazing professors. While I would have liked to have b...

I've grown a lot. I've gotten better at putting my life in perspective (getting angry less), have creatively flourished, and have expanded my mind. It's cliche, yes, but it's true. Also, I had a ton of fun. I've said it over and over: best year of my life.
