the experience of my lifetime Past Review

By (Economics., The University of Texas at Austin) for

CIEE: Seoul - Arts and Sciences

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
Although I didn't give all of above the best ratings, but the overall experience was definitely worth the 5 star. I had the time of my life, not just learning language and culture, but also making friends and spending memorable times with them. It's an unique experience that you won't have at your home country. Imagine yourself in an amazing foreign country, meeting amazing people just like you from all over the world, gathered at this one amazing university. You learn, live, and explore in this amazing environment together everyday and create the most amazing memories that will last you a life time. The experience is definitely worthwhile.
