A student Middlebury College
"Did a lot of growing in all the solitary time I had since I had like 3 friends, but biggest thing I learned is that I have to rely on myself and only myself to get things done."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned a lot through my experience, but I really learned the hard way. I don't think you have to be so isolated to learn the life lessons I learned abroad. "

"I learned a lot of Japanese. I wonder whether it was worth while."
A student Middlebury College
"I learned how to speak French at a near fluent level. I would say it was worthwhile, but I would much rather have studied with a less intensive program that allowed me to speak English a bit more often. I was incredibly stressed and confused during my time in the city and Middlebury did very little to remedy this."

While perhaps another program would have been less devastating, it would have been so because I wouldn't have been so ex..."

Joseph P Middlebury College
"I learned to enjoy solitude. Most of the people I met in my dorm were not really concerned about anything that I was concerned about. People at the school were not very engaged in their program of study so I spent most of my time by myself. I suppose that is important. "
