"I gained the traveling aspect alone there and back can be very difficult, however, each day there was something new to be learned and go through while staying with the family, meeting new people, or exploring the town by yourself. "

Susan G Marymount University
"I truly enjoyed my study abroad experience. I not only learned so much from my internship about the fashion industry, but I also learned so much more about myself.

Brittany R Marymount University
"The study abroad experience was everything I wanted it to be. I met new people, saw things I could only dream about, and enjoyed the most delicious food. One thing that impacted me the most was how spartan people's lives are. They don't have nearly as many possessions as we do back in the states, and yet, they seem happier. They..."
Michael V Marymount University
"I learned how to get around with a large language barrier. I also learned how to adapt and make changes in a moment's notice.

The experience as a whole has made me realize what I want to do as a te..."

Leanne H Marymount University
"It was more than worthwhile, it is one of the best things I have ever done! It was humbling to study with such a brilliant Oxford don, and I learned that although I will most likely never be a Rhodes scholar, if I work very hard with my studies, it will be rewarded! I also learned a great deal about being independent: shoppin..."
Maria M Marymount University
"I learned a lot about myself going abroad. Some anxiety's and fears that I had before about being around huge groups of people that I don't know, or presenting in front of a room full of people while knowing them or not knowing them definitely have substantially subsided. My experience abroad also revealed how cultures can ver..."
