Abroad was one of the best experiences of my life, i would not change it for anything. Mhairi - Clark University - Worcester View Entire Review
I gained independence and a lot of confidence. Being in London made me rely on public transportation and learning how to get around the city on my own. Because of that, I quickly had to learn the best way to get around and different tricks. This helped me grow confidence in myself and I learned that I am better at problem solvin...

I learned how important it is to step outside of your comfort zone. It's amazing how much you learn and how much you grow once you start doing things out of your everyday norm. Chloe Thornberry - University of Missouri - Columbia View Entire Review
Completely worthwhile! I learned more about myself on this trip than I ever could have imagined. I made friends from my campus that I would have never met and also made friends in Singapore that I still keep in touch with.

The experience that CAPA provided me was a once in a life time opportunity. It really helped me grow as a student, a professional, and a culturally aware member of society.

I learned life experiences, how to manage money, how to travel on my own and how to be in a foreign country during a pandemic. It was more than worth while I would do it over and over again if I could. A student - Ursinus College View Entire Review

Meaningful travel means going somewhere to learn something about yourself and how it connects to the environment that you’re in. Traveling to a vacation town can be fun to get away from everything for a week, but have you really learned anything from it? I think that the best kind of travel is going somewhere you want to go, lea... Mikayla Habina - Lake Erie College View Entire Review

I learned to appreciate every part of the world. This earth is so much bigger than just where we are from. Joshua Adlam - Rollins College View Entire Review
I really enjoyed my history class I took where I learned about what makes London a global city because I was able to practice experience learning. Also, I learned a ton from my internship; I liked that it was part-time (only 20 hours a week), which gave me plenty of time for exploring while still gaining experience working abroa...

I learned a lot about art. My minor is in arts administration so the fact that I was able to learn so much about Modern Art and see most of it in person, was incredible.
