A Look Back
| * What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? | I had a great time, because everyone I met here was so nice. But the school did not teach me very much French, and learning French was a huge reason why I came here. I would suggest choosing a different program (not CILEC, which is what they offered here). I would still highly recommend studying abroad, though. It was probably the best decision I ever made. |
