Being abroad is extraordinary and challenging. Being in Ghana was amazing. But we had so many problems with our program: corruption, absent academic director, extreme discomfort in homestays, racism, insensitive dialgoue about sexual assault, an extremely poorly designed academic program. However, it was so wonderful to go live ... A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned how to exist in a group. I learned how to focus on the beauty of a country and all the new and wonderful experiences I was having rather than drama and misunderstandings. I learned t appreciate the bigger picture. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
There is not enough space here to tell all that I have gained. It was most definitely worthwhile, I don't want to imagine what my life would be like if I had not gone on this adventure. I've learned so much about cultural appreciation and acknowledgement; for myself, I've learned about patience and self control. A student - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I could not even begin to sum up what I learned. I never believed that my mind could be challenged like it would be in Ghana. I was taught about myself through others. For me, it was a revolutionary experience that I want to keep all to myself because I cannot begin to explain it so other people could understand. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
In Ghana I learned how to Azonto dance, ride in trotros, eat Joloff rice like a pro, coco farm, make pottery and beads, conceptualize colonialism, weave Kente cloth, lay down some sick beats on a talking drum, drink water out of plastic bags, reject marriage proposals, use any kind of toilet facility possible, converse with a ch...

My study abroad experience was incredible, life changing and will stay with me forever.

It was definitely worthwhile. I learned so much about myself as a Ghanaian, as well as the many challenges that a developing country like Ghana faces. A student - Wellesley College View Entire Review
this is a difficult question for me. Looking back, I'm very glad I went. I learned a lot about Ghanaian culture and made some strong connections. However, I think a lot of that was dependent on my group. I was able to have intellectual discussions with my peers, but we found ourselves very frustrated with the staff often.

I learned how to understand myself and others better. I had the best time in Ghana and it changed my life forever. I am more grateful for the friends and family I have around me. I have learned to appreciate the simple things in life. When I was in Ghana I wanted to talk to my family more and often wished I had appliances that m...

The whole time we were busy seeing and learning about different aspects of the Ghanaian culture. It was hurt breaking but yet empowering at the same time. You can walk away from the experience with a greater appreciation for your life and the community in which you live. Wanting to assist and make a difference for those people w...

well my experience in Ghan impacted me in such a way that I have chosen international studies to get my second masters in. I went to Ghana misinformed and under certain misconceptions that I found to be just that, Misconceptions.
