Yes, Amazing experiences! Eric M - Texas A&M - College Station View Entire Review
Absolutely. This semester has helped me realize so much more about myself, about who I am, what I need as a person, and how I fare when thrown into uncomfortable situations. Being in Europe has opened my eyes to a whole new world of possibilities as far as post-undergrad goes. I could really see myself moving here soon after ...

It Was Such A Great Experience, I Was Stretched And I Grew So Much As A Person! Great Culture!
Yes it was! I am not way more culturally aware of different people and in different situations. I no longer think that the best way to do things is the way that we do it here in the States. I grew so much and I will use everything that I learned while abroad in my life. However, I also think that you need to be mature to go, but... Jess B - State U View Entire Review
This was an incredibly fulfilling experience both culturally and academically. I walked away with a broadened perspective on our world and its incredible and different people all while learning to speak Spanish fluently! I'd do it again tomorrow if given the opportunity!

I gained a lot of insight about european and spanish culture and saw a different way to live and a way by which i could evaluate my own life style here in the US. And i had a lot of fun Maura M - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
Definitely worthwhile! Everything that I've gained from this experience will be beneficial to my future. I cannot possibly list everything that this experience has gained me. All I can say is that my life has officially changed, the way I view myself, those around me, and the world itself. A student View Entire Review
I learned a lot about the Spanish culture and feel it has had an impact on my life. I will take what I have learned back with me. Scott S - California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo View Entire Review
It was interesting living in Europe during the financial crisis. I gained an understanding of how Europeans work and view the world. I definitely want to work with Spanish speaking countries in my future career Paul P - University of Arizona View Entire Review
I gained a confidence with a second language that I never thought I would have had. This study abroad program opened my eyes to the magic of traveling and meeting people who live in other countries, faced with different realities. Living in another big city in the world (Toronto - Barcelona) made me realize the similarities and ... Jessica N - University of Northern British Columbia View Entire Review
Studying abroad changed me in many ways. After the first month I ended up dating a girl in another study abroad program so on top of learning the language of Spain and loving the culture, I was able to find out more about myself since I was in my first relationship. I wish to go back to Barcelona now because feel I know the cit... Matt R - Ithaca College View Entire Review
This experience is something I will NEVER forget. It was worth every penny. A student View Entire Review
This experience was unique and very special that gave me a different perspective about life in general. I was able to learn about another culture and their traditions as they welcomed us with friendly greetings. Carlos S - Marymount University View Entire Review
My time in Barcelona, firstly, gave me a solid grasp of the Spanish language, which I now use when I travel everywhere. I met many cool people I still keep in touch with. I learned how to travel alone, and the steps to becoming accustomed to a new culture. I picked up all the wonderful aspects of a European lifestyle, something ... Jessica S - McGill University View Entire Review
This study abroad experience was very worthwhile. It allowed me to travel extensively, become nearly fluent in Spanish, broaden my horizons, and learn a tremendous amount through conversations, classes, and cultural experiences. It has been helpful in my career and every day life. Jeffrey L - Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University View Entire Review
Yes. I learned about myself and my relationship with the world. I really learned how to live with another culture and appreciate it. Naomi H - SUNY - Binghamton View Entire Review
