Studying abroad was the best experience of my life, and I miss it everyday. I learned how to adapt myself to new places. I learned to budget my money. I learned just how big our world is, and how important it is to get our of your bubble. Kylie R - Towson University View Entire Review
I gained global awareness, personal identity, appreciation of diverse people and cultures, and memories that will last a lifetime. 100% worthwhile. I would do it all over again if I could! A student - Siena College View Entire Review
I gained a sense of independence; I had to learn to do everything for myself. This was definitely a worthwhile experience and I think everyone, if they get the chance, should study abroad. A student - Mount Saint Mary College View Entire Review
My time abroad in Europe was such a rewarding and life changing experience. Being able to live and work in a foreign global city taught me so much about different cultures, and taught me a lot about myself as well. My time in London allowed me to grow infinitely as a person, as I gained a new found sense of independence and appr... Victoria R - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review
I learned to not be afraid or intimated of having conversations with adults. I always felt that they did not care what I had to say or my opinion on anything. My boss actually challenged me and he made me realize that I have a hard time explaining myself. I did not realize that I was not open minded to certain things. So when it... Nina S - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review
I learned how to live independently, how to become more flexible as a student, friend, and coworker, and built a ton of self confidence! A student - Emerson College View Entire Review
In addition to memories and friends that will last a lifetime, I gained many valuable life skills: independence, confidence, adaptability, cross-cultural communication, the ability to work through difficult situations. Study abroad is probably the most worthwhile and beneficial thing that I’ve done in college. Everything that I ... Jill - University of Massachusetts Amherst / UMass View Entire Review
I learned a ton about the world I am living in. I learned that a lot of the struggles and challenges we face as Americans are not at all the same thing that people in other parts of the world struggle with. This experience opened my eyes to all the great things I have had a privilege to and taught me to be fortunate for this. I ... Andrew Ayres - Clark University - Worcester View Entire Review
I learned a lot about basic marketing that I think will help me in the pursuit of my degree. A student - Occidental College View Entire Review
It was definitely a worthwhile experience, I made new friends and visited different countries while learning about England when I was at home A student - University of Hartford View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile. I learned that I can live on my own in a foreign country without needing help from my parents which was huge. I also learned more about different countries and areas throughout Europe and how people of different cultures view life, Americans, etc. A student - DePaul University View Entire Review
It was an incredibly worthwile experience. I felt like it was a really good fit for me and I loved all the academic and internship opportunities the program offered. Maria Luisa E - Clark University - Worcester View Entire Review
Worthwhile is an understatement. I learned a lot about myself and my ability to juggle international travel, anxiety, living on my own and making international connections. Great for my degree, learning marketing on other countries and in other cultures. Living in such a historically significant place builds perspective. Hanna N - University of Westminster View Entire Review
I learned that I am fully capable of being independent. I learned more about who I was as a person and how I handle different situations. I am more confident in myself thanks to this experience. Hayley Walton - Texas A&M - Corpus Christi View Entire Review
It was the best opportunity of my life and I would do it over again in a heartbeat if I could. I learned more things about myself professional and personally within 6 weeks more than I have at my 2 years in college. I found a passion in the work that I did at my internship and I found such a love for cities and for traveling. Denise Carino - University of Florida View Entire Review
I learned about different cultures, traditions, and values of the English culture. I also learned many pop-culture influences such as fashion and British Textiles. A student - Mount Saint Mary College View Entire Review
I learned so much from locals at work and in passing. I feel like I truly submerged myself in a different culture and it was fascinating to be a part of. It was easily the most worthwhile thing I've ever done and will probably ever do. Carly Hamilton - University of Missouri - Columbia View Entire Review
Studying abroad with CAPA was, truly, one of the best decisions I have ever made. When I began the process of finding a program to study in London with, there were a few things that I know I wanted: To live in a flat in the city, to be able to travel, and to have an internship. I found that CAPA would be able to give me all of t... Kylie McDonald - Rider University View Entire Review
My internship provided through CAPA gave me a lot of professional experience. Living in London gave me plenty of worldly perspective. Rachel Long - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review

I could not have asked for a better study abroad experience. I gained so many life long friends and traveled to more places than I could have imagined. I learned how to travel at an affordable price, the safest and easiest ways to get around cities, and became more of an overall independent person. Emily Pahl - University of Massachusetts Amherst / UMass View Entire Review
I learned how to be independent in a foreign city and I learned how to interact with all kinds of people. Yes, it was worthwhile. A student - University of Hartford View Entire Review
One of the cool things I learned is that no one is going to get you where you want to be. You have to motivate and push your own self to do that. The daily tube rides were always crowded and pressed for space. If you did not move, you was not going anywhere. Lydia S - Albright College View Entire Review
Studying abroad was the best time of my life, and was so worthwhile the worry and financial stress. It was my first time out of the country to live in the UK for 4 months, and it was the longest I had ever been away from home. Most days I was on my own during my commute and travels around the city, and I learned that being on yo... Jeanne R - Hood College View Entire Review
I learned to respect cultures that are different from my own. I also learned that I need to always act as a positive ambassador of the United States to help bridge misconceptions that people of other cultures have of us. Kyle D - Siena College View Entire Review
