You really get what you put into this experience. I was happy to travel, explore, and experience new things. I learned so much about the world and myself in the process. I have a new perspective on things. You make great friendships and amazing memories. Both of which will last you a lifetime. tiffany.vu.7 - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review
I learned to be relatively self-reliant. I hadn't cooked much prior to going, and I was forced by the circumstances to cook for myself. I just gained a greater sense of independence. That is the most valuable thing a study abroad trip should give you. David F - Seton Hill College View Entire Review
While I certainly had expectations about how my experience abroad would be, I don't think I really understood how much of an effect it would have on me. In the four months that I spent abroad, I learned so much about myself and what I want out of life. You have the opportunity to learn and see so many things. Although the idea o...

I learned to accept things outside my comfort zone and my perspective on life drastically changed for the better. I learned that people on the whole really do have good intentions and are willing to help others in time of need (directions for example). I also learned how to become more culturally accepting and am not more open m... Colleen K - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review
I learned how to travel abroad. I learned so much about the German and European culture. It was the most worthwhile experience. Katherine R - Ramapo College View Entire Review
I learned that its not the same everywhere. It broadened my horizon overall. You learn how differently people live compared to how you do back home. You also learn to appreciate the little things that you don't pay attention to at home. It was definitely worthwhile! Vanessa N - University of the Incarnate Word View Entire Review

It was definitely worthwhile. I learned about hard work, and traveling, and life, and the world. A student - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review

I learned crucial life lessons and experiences outside of the classroom that were very eye opening and helped me have a better understanding of different cultures, customs, people and history. Nicole M - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review
I learned that you get out of your study abroad experience what you put into it. Since I was open to new experiences and excited to explore and travel, the benefits to me became immeasurable. I experienced many wonderful places in Europe, learned a ton of history, tried great food, and much more. The friendships I made with the ... A student - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review
So far, I think I've learned more about myself than I've learned about the material in my classes or about the places I've visited. There is something about taking yourself out of your comfort zone for an extended period of time that gives you a new perspective on yourself. Coming to Heidelberg has been, hands down, the best dec... A student - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review
