NGO Past Review
By Mikel B (Colby College) - abroad from 06/07/2013 to 08/02/2013 with
Study Away and Internship Programs in New York City
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
EiAbroad program was everything I was looking for. Even though I am from the East Coast i didn't have the connections in NYC to land an internship. My university also lacked based there so EiAbroad came as the perfect partner for me.
