A lot of cultural understanding, cheesy as that may be. - Georgia State University View Entire Review
I learned about economies, populations, political situations of countries that I previously didn't know where they were on a map. I learned about myself and broadened my horizons on other cultures, as well as gained connections and friends from all around the world. Living abroad definitely made me appreciate America, but also m... - Georgia State University View Entire Review

A student studying abroad with CEPA Foundation: Strasbourg - EU Studies Semester Abroad Program
OF COURSE IT WAS! I learned so much that I created a whole blog about it. But in short words: I increased my global awareness and have an international perspective on politics and relations among nations. - University of Florida View Entire Review
The abroad portion of my trip was the best. I got to do some soul searching and discover what it is I want from my life, friends, and what I need to change or accept about life. I would not have changed this program at all because it was my experience but I think if I were to do another study abroad I would not come to France. ... - Georgia State University View Entire Review
A student studying abroad with CEPA Europe: Strasbourg - EU Studies Program
Yes, i learned that I could navigate in a foreign country and learn a foreign language quite easily. - Georgia State University View Entire Review
I learned many things about the French culture that contradicted many of my already assumed ideas. Now, I would like to double major and add French as one of my majors and I would love to be an international business lawyer so I can have the chance to be out of the country more. - Pennsylvania State University - Abington View Entire Review
Yes it was, but in many ways I wish that I had gone to Italy instead because I didn't really enjoy france. The Italy group was much more involved in the country. They had to go into the city to go to class. We had to walk down a flight of stairs. I rated it a 4 because I did love it and I would definitely study abroad again, but... - Colby-Sawyer College View Entire Review
Yes, it taught me a lot of things which is going to help me in my future life. - Colby-Sawyer College View Entire Review
Somehow I figured out that I didn't want to work in the business field while abroad and have instead changed to Environmental Science. That is one positive impact it has had on my life. - Colby-Sawyer College View Entire Review
You learn a lot about yourself as well as the other culture. - Colby-Sawyer College View Entire Review
