My internship helped me to gain valuable work experience and find my passion for social entrepreneurship as a viable career path. Anna M - Rollins College View Entire Review
I've learned about living in a global city, self-travel and getting along on my own. It was worthwhile, but not because of the program. Allyson C - University of Minnesota - Twin Cities View Entire Review
I gained an understanding of British culture and society. I gained skills and experiences that are currently making me a top prospect in my job search for post-college. It was definitely worthwhile and I recommend it highly to all students looking for a life-changing experience gabegage - Miami University of Ohio View Entire Review
It was the best four months of my life, and I learned so much about myself and what I'm capable of. A student - Rollins College View Entire Review
Learned about how to live on my own and deal with different types of people (4 very different roommates). Learned that language differences are a huge part of cultural exchange, and how similar Western (American/European) cultures are. Vaishak A - University of Minnesota - Twin Cities View Entire Review
Being on my own. Yes, very empowering Aaron S - University of Minnesota - Twin Cities View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself. It was very worthwhile as I was completely on my own which makes me ready to take on any job, person or other speed bumps in my future. A student - Illinois State University View Entire Review
i loved london...but capa was bad. admin takes deposit from you for housing..and never gives it back, if you are lucky you get it back...then they stop responding to your emails. Our "RA" was never in his apt...he quit mid program and the new one is always gone. The beds were so springy and awful..and 2 weeks before we left..the... diane c - University of Massachusetts Amherst View Entire Review
I learned just how small the world is, and also the importance of our global community. My cultural awareness has expanded; all people are intrinsically the same and seek the same things in life. Knowing how we are all so closely tied together has made me want to see even more of the world. Riley S - Western State College of Colorado View Entire Review
The experience was definitely worthwhile. I would love to go back! My only regret was not being able to travel as much as I had hoped to. The opportunity of being abroad really allows one to grow in independence and self reliance. Anastasiya B - Clark University View Entire Review
Absolutely! Hannah B - Clark University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself and other cultures. I gained many new, American friends. It was very worthwhile. A student - University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh View Entire Review
I consider myself a very open-minded person, but I never realized how forceful American culture was my whole life. London is an incredibly multi-cultural city so I was able to experience more than just the stereotypical British culture. It was honestly the most amazing opportunity I've ever had in my life and I miss the city ter... Grace O - University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself and that I most certainly hope to live abroad for a few years. It is a lifestyle that i appreciate and enjoy, and want to further experience. I was a very defining experience in my life. A student - University of Massachusetts Amherst View Entire Review
It was beyond my expectations. I learned how to interact with different cultures and how to be self sufficient. A student - University of Minnesota - Twin Cities View Entire Review
I learned how to face challenges without leaning on my immediate friends and family. I also learned to step out of my comfort zones and do things that scare me. The experience was 100% worth while. Alli B - Rollins College View Entire Review
i learned how strong and independent i really am, and i learned how important it is to step outside your comfort zone. A student - Rollins College View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself from studying abroad, which sounds cheesy and cliche, but that's because it's true. I become very independent while studying abroad, figuring out the tube and bus systems on my own and learning to budget for weekly expenses and traveling alone across Europe. But I also made lots of new friends, both ... Emily A - Rollins College View Entire Review
I did an internship and it really helped me professionally, I am still in touch with my supervisor and will see him in a couple weeks in Boulder. I also made friends and got to see how a huge city functions in another part of the world! Jaclyn B - University of Colorado - Boulder View Entire Review
Absolutely. Great new perspective on host country as well as the US, lots of interaction within the city. Natalie W - Providence College View Entire Review
So worth it! Best experience of my life! Jacqueline B - Clark University View Entire Review
