Any opportunity to be immersed in another part of the world like that is worthwhile in my opinion, and this was no exception. Josiah Denson - Ohio Northern University View Entire Review

Maybe the best thing is the large amount of friends you make in only four weeks, you sare such a unique experience which makes you very close.

Exchange programs really bring you out of your shell and Hanyang is so great at facilitating activities and classes that get you involved with local students and other international students. I have never met a person who has left South Kor... Jessie-Zoe R - University of the Sunshine Coast View Entire Review
