Review Your Program
|
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
It was a very expensive trip with many costs that were not expected. I expected to not have been stuck every night at the theatre and the lack of food that fits my diet was upsetting. The professors did a nice job of teaching us but letting us also explore and learn on our own and with each other. |
