Past Review
By Alicia S (Spanish Language and Literature., University of South Dakota) for
ISA Study Abroad in San José, Costa Rica
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
This experience was very worthwhile. It gave me the opportunity to learn the Spanish language in a very unique setting. Living with a Spanish speaking home was both difficult and rewarding. I was blessed with roommates who were willing to help me with any difficulties I had and I did the same for them. It also gave me the unique opportunity to learn about a culture by experiencing it. I would recommend this program to anyone who is interested in both Spanish and the Medical field.
