I gained a sense of freedom by being abroad in another country and being so far from anyone I knew. It was an incredible experience and was definitely worth while. Shadeh - Trinity University View Entire Review

I have grown so much creatively and the time I have spent here has allowed me to gain confidence in my personal and academic skills. I have travelled a lot and gained great friendships (especially with the Canadians)! Chastity D - Brandeis University View Entire Review
It was definitely worth it to study abroad. It was an amazing experience and I learned a lot about myself,life, and another culture.

I had a wonderful time, and made the best friends who I am planning to go spend a couple weeks now 2 years later. I loved Scotland, the people were so friendly. In Europe it was so easy to travel cheaply. I also took very interesting classes, film and literature that focused on scottish and british culture. I wish I could have s...

Yes - I feel like I saw the entire world! It also made me much more independent, and I feel like I can plan anything and make it happen.
