It was definitely worthwhile. I learned the global map. I learned a lot about global cultures and most importantly I learned who I am. - Howard University View Entire Review
I learned about adapting to cultural differences. Yes, it was worthwhile. - Berea College View Entire Review
Being able to backpack around Europe and travel around most of Ireland was a very worthwhile experience. Going abroad helped me improve many skills necessary for a successful future such as budgeting and time management. - University of Hartford View Entire Review

Life lessons, travel lessons, about different cultures. Independence and confidence. More about myself than I would have discovered at home. - Centenary College of New Jersey View Entire Review

Gained a whole new perspective on life outside the states. The most worthwhile four months of my life, would encourage anyone to study abroad. - Oklahoma State University - Stillwater View Entire Review
I honestly cannot even express how valuable, life-changing, growing, adventurous, and exciting my experience at the University of Limerick was! It has given me a love for traveling, a deeper appreciation for people and cultures around the world, an adventuring spirit, and a confidence in myself I had never had before.

Studying abroad gave me a different outlook on life. It just opens your eyes to so much more than the little stuff we are used to. I met amazing people, whom i will always keep in touch with hopefully for years to come. Its very worth it. - University of Arkansas - Fayetteville View Entire Review
Past Review Unforgettable
I gained so much. I learned more about myself then I ever thought I could. I learned to be much more independent and not rely so much on others. It was definitely worthwhile! - University of North Dakota View Entire Review
How much I truly love to travel. I loved UL so much I'm going to go back to get my Masters. - Saint John Fisher College View Entire Review
I learned that sometimes no plan is the best plan, that was a big thing for me. Sometimes the most amazing experiences come when you least expect them. Definitely worthwhile! - College of Charleston View Entire Review
Past Review Fantastic
Learning how to budget and travel while making new friends. Defiantly worthwhile!!!! - University of Hartford View Entire Review
It was 100% worth it. I learned a lot about how others view america which was both worrying but also refreshing. I learned a lot about myself and my ability to live independently. I was able to see so many places in Europe and expand my knowledge of the world. - University of Hartford View Entire Review

Learned how to travel and can now do so with confidence - Centenary College of New Jersey View Entire Review
My experience abroad gave me so much more self-confidence and a greater perspective of the world around me. I became comfortable navigating foreign cities, striking up conversation with strangers, and exploring the world around me. I also discovered that there is so much more outside of the bubble I've lived in my whole life, an... - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I gained a lot of confidence about traveling in general, but especially regarding traveling in Europe. The experience was worthwhile, but I would choose a different program because AIFS was not worth the money. - Providence College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about my own culture, which I did not expect. It was shocking to me how much people look to basic cultural stereotypes to identify people. I found people often asking me and my friends about our ethnicity and religion almost immediately after asking our names. In Canada, this would be inconceivably rude. - University of Calgary View Entire Review
I learned about travel. Such as who to travel with, and how my personality fits with others. - Berea College View Entire Review
Past Review Indescribable
I've learned how to take care of myself and gained a lot of experiences that will hopefully help me get a good job when I graduate. It was definitely worthwhile. - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I made a lot of different people, not only from Ireland but also friends from different places around the US. - Carroll College View Entire Review
