Sevilla: Challening but Rewarding & Amazing Experience Past Review

By (Accountancy, Providence College) for

CIEE: Seville - Liberal Arts

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
My study abroad experience was definitely worth missing a semester at PC even though I love my college. I gained a better understanding of myself & pushed myself to great limits I never thought I would be able to achieve. Sevilla is an amazing city and I would strongly suggest that one study abroad there if given the opportunity and who also wants to improve his or her Spanish language skills.
