It was 100 percent worthwhile. I learned so much about myself and grew into a more independent and confident person. Allison A - Saint Ambrose University View Entire Review
Studying abroad really opened my mind to the world and gave me a global perspective on everything. In general I feel like I grew so much during my time abroad through meeting new people and especially my internship. It taught me about the type of place I can see myself living in the future, and it taught me how valuable experien... A student - University of Hartford View Entire Review
I gained a lot from this program — having never had roommates, or my own place, I got the opportunity to live independently for the first time in my life. Coming from a small town, the transition to city life was transformative too. I would say the trip was absolutely worthwhile for me, but a big flaw is a lack of immersion.... Paul W - Hood College View Entire Review
From my abroad experience, I gained a newfound confidence in myself and my ability to navigate the world and certain social situations. I am better able to communicate successfully with people and am more excited to participate in activities that may initially make me a little nervous. It was definitely worthwhile and essential ... A student - Clark University - Worcester View Entire Review
Besides gaining what you're actually there for (great work experience that relates to your major and class credit), I really gained confidence and independence. Learning to navigate a foreign city, adapting to a culture, meeting new people, things like cooking for yourself and traveling to other countries - it really requires pl...

I learned to not plan ahead when traveling. It was very worthwhile A student - DePaul University View Entire Review
I learned so much about myself and the world. I realized that I lived in a bubble, and needed to gain perspective. I saw how other people and countries lived, and it taught me to be more open and learn to love whatever I was exposed to. It was incredibly worthwhile and rewarding. Natalie H - University of Mississippi View Entire Review
Traveling is great and easy within Europe. CEA is not worth the money. Go through a different program. emma.mulligan.33 - University of Westminster View Entire Review
It was definitely worthwhile! I learned so much about myself and others and learned that I could thrive within the contexts of another culture. A student - University of Westminster View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself, the world, London culture, and from my classes as well. it was 100% worthwhile. I was able to step out of my comfort zone, make new friends, and travel the world. allison.knapp.71 - University of Delaware View Entire Review
I definitely gained a newfound independence, and I found a major city that I feel extremely comfortable and confident in. A student - Rider University View Entire Review
I learned so much about the film industry which is what I want to build a career in. I was able to study while also gaining valuable perspective and work experience in my field and practice my communication skills at events while meeting locals. I was able to explore London and gain confidence and independence as a person. This ... Carolyn M - University of North Carolina - Asheville View Entire Review
It sounds cheesy, but this experience truly helped me develop as both a person and a student in ways I couldn't have predicted. I would not give it up for anything. Katherine B - Rollins College View Entire Review
Interning and studying with CAPA I learned a lot and was able to grow personally and professionally. I woke up each morning and was excited for work or for class and that's how I knew I chose the right program for me. With CAPA I learned new business knowledge in class and at my internship along with learning a lot about the cit... A student - Stonehill College View Entire Review
During my experience abroad, what I learned the most about was probably myself. The program gives you so much time to do whatever you choose, it can show you more about who you truly are. For example, when an empty day presents itself (which I found many of), how you choose to spend it is up to you, and probably a few friends yo... A student - University of Florida View Entire Review
Going into this program, I had never been exposed to any international experiences. It was nerve-wracking and forced me to step out of my comfort zone, but it taught me more about myself than I could have ever imagined. For one, I gained a sense of confidence by being abroad on my own for two months. I was forced to learn a new ... Hannah M - SUNY - College at Oswego View Entire Review
I learned to truly embrace different cultures and what opportunities are around me. A student - Austin College View Entire Review
International work experience and the chance to travel. A student - Clark University - Worcester View Entire Review
Friends, life/travel experience, memories! I absolutely loved my time abroad. I would give anything to go back! A student - East Carolina University View Entire Review
I learned how to be independent and also where I eventually want to live at some point in my life. When I explored London for the first time I instantly knew that it was the place for me. I matured so much and learned so much about myself that it made all of the effort and sacrifice really worthwhile. I can safely say that it wa... Jorge G - Clark University - Worcester View Entire Review
While in London, I really grew as a person. I overcame a lot of my anxiety, which was huge for me. I gained the courage to step out of my comfort zone and leave home. I have learned I have a passion for photography and art. I have also become a better listener, an active learner, more independent, more assertive, have learned to... Emily M - Arizona State University View Entire Review
During my time in London I was fortunate enough to call myself a resident one of the world's greatest cities. I recieved an excellent education, and even got to work in the legal field. I gained a great amount of insight on the professional legal field in London. However, the most important part of the trip for me was cultural i... Dylan C - Siena College View Entire Review
It was awesome! Sara S - University of Westminster View Entire Review
Best three months of my life, hands down. I wish I was still there!! Working and living in London really sparked an interest in living abroad and I hope to return someday and live there for a few years. Daniel R - University of Massachusetts Amherst / UMass View Entire Review
I learned about working in an international office and making it in a city on my own. Mary Kate M - Rollins College View Entire Review
