"It was a once in a lifetime experience. I had an amazing time while gaining much insight about Chinese culture, history and language. It has given me a better knowledge of how to get around China. It has also planted in me a strong interest to return to the country to work for several years. "

"Tufts-in-Oxford is a great program. It's very helpful to be in a Tufts program, since you get to utilize the Tufts resources and stay connected with the Tufts community while studying abroad. Oxford is an intense but rewarding academic experience. Obviously, don't go into the program if you're not ready to work hard (but if y..."

"My study abroad experience was great. I didn't realize it as much at the time, but in retrospect, it was amazing. I loved Germany and it is truly a once in a lifetime experience to be able to live in another country. "
Kathryn C Tufts University
"I think I became more independent and learned how to travel on my own. It was definitely a worthwhile experience, one that I would never trade. "
Danielle P Tufts University
"Yes, it was amazing. I loved traveling, meeting new people, getting off Tufts campus for a semester..."
Rebecca H Tufts University
"Studying in Hong Kong was definitely once in a lifetime experience. Yes, you can instantly spot differences between Hong Kong and where you are from, but will soon realize that the different methods and traditions work just as well. If you want to be immersed in the culture, you have to actively seek out opportunities. It's very..."

"I had literally the most amazing time of my life and I am such a better person for my time abroad. "
Kailah Tufts University
"It was completely worthwhile. I made new lifelong friends, I learned a lot academically, I had fun. Taking the time to travel more was the best decision because you see things that you have never seen before that are completely different from anything you find at home."
Alex Tufts University
"Study abroad was an unbelievable opportunity that broadened my horizons to a world beyond the US. I was given the opportunity to see how students behave in a different country and how norms vary across the world. I traveled Europe and learned so much inside and outside of the classroom. "
Brittany R Tufts University
"I became a much more independent and confident person after studying abroad. Living in a new city with a different language and culture pushed me out of my comfort zone. Traveling to many countries and cities with other students taught me to be more independent. Studying abroad was extremely worthwhile. "
SHELBY R Tufts University
"It was totally worthwhile. "
Hilary W Tufts University
"Yes. "
Gabriella A Tufts University
"I had possibly the best year of my life. I made some life-long friends, got to understand a new culture, and was exposed to so many different people from all over the world. Also, living on your own in a big city forces you to be more independent and mature much faster. It was so difficult to force myself on a plane to come back..."
Doris L Tufts University
"Studying abroad was one of the best things I've ever done in my life. "
Jennifer I Tufts University
"Definitely worthwhile - I couldn't have done anything better during my junior year. I've made friends from all over the world who have already come to visit me in the U.S. Oxford encouraged me to pursue a senior thesis and taught me that I can handle independent, self-taught learning."
Brianna B Tufts University
"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 ..."
Elena M Tufts University
"It was worthwhile. "
Christine G Tufts University
"I loved my year abroad! It was the best year of my life. I hope to travel more in the future. "
Jacqueline D Tufts University
"The experience is what you make of it. I believe that you can get as much as you want out of a study abroad regardless which program you go on. It is really a question of what the student puts into it."
Meredith K Tufts University
"YES! Sevilla is one of the most magical places I've ever been to or could imagine. I found it to be incredibly inspirational and evocative simply in the lay-out of its windy streets, the songs wafting on the wind, the clop of horsedrawn carriages... the details are endless, there is so much to Notice. I came away with some incr..."
Jeanine C Tufts University
"It was extremely worthwhile. I became more outgoing, relaxed and confident. "
Lauren W Tufts University
"The experience was absolutely worthwhile. I experienced a major tourist destination as a resident sees it, I greatly improved my language skills, and I got to study art history in one of the most art-filled cities in the world. "
Laura S Tufts University
"My study abroad program helped me realize what I care about and what kind of person I want to be. I met incredible people and had incredible experiences. I would not be where I am right now if I did not do this program. "
Heather B Tufts University
"Best thing I've done in college. Hands down."
