On top of gaining the credits I needed to finish a Spanish minor, I gained perspective on other areas in the world and people living very different lives than me.

Of course it was worthwhile! It was the best experience of my life. I had never been abroad before and I was honestly very nervous and scared. But after traveling and experiencing just a small other portion of the world made my eyes open and see what more the world has to offer.

I loved learning the culture of Granada and historical things about the city. It was 100% worth the money and time spent there. Christen Stevenson - University of Houston View Entire Review
