I achieved my goal of studying abroad in London that I had since the 5th or 6th grade. I couldn’t even explain how much fun I had. I would do it again in a heartbeat and I hope to return to London one day. - Syracuse University View Entire Review

I learned a lot about the different cultures by traveling. I learned so much about the United Kingdom history. I experienced things that I never thought I would if I didn’t leave syracuse. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I was extremely timid when I started college. I preferred to be with people I was familiar with and in areas that I recognized. Studying abroad provided me with the opportunities to grow as an individual and learn how to overcome my hesitations with leave my comfort zone. I grew to become more independent and confident. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I learned so much. I made tons of friends from Syracuse, which made my experience very enjoyable and unforgettable. It was definitely worthwhile. I learned to be more independent and that pushing yourself out of your comfort zone is almost always the best thing for you. - Fordham University View Entire Review
I learned that cultures can be different, but we are all human beings and can all get along with one another no matter what country we are from. I learned a lot about myself as a person, and I learned lessons about other people. It was worth it to do an internship, because even though I did not get to travel as much, I was able ... - Fordham University View Entire Review
Yes, learning a different culture is great. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
Although living in London and traveling Europe is by no means inexpensive, I feel like it was worth every dime I spent. It changed my life because now I know that I can do anything. I learned so much about myself and also broadened my horizons so drastically. I want to see the world and going abroad has only given me a taste of ... - Fordham University View Entire Review
Absolutely worthwhile. I gained a better understanding of Europe as a whole and the city of my dad's upbringing. It helped me care about the whole world and not just America first. - Fordham University View Entire Review

Knowledge and an interest to live abroad - Syracuse University View Entire Review
Time management skills were key! I learned to be more independent and manage a city on my own. It taught me how to meet new people and expand out from my comfort zone. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I don't think you can put into words what you gain from living and studying abroad for a semester. It is an experience that really shapes your college years. It has the ability to put your world view into perspective and show you that there is so much more to the world then what we see in our corner of the USA. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I definitely became more independent, and learned some important time management skills. After all, living in a big city you're reliant on public transportation, like the tube, which can be unpredictable. When the tube workers go on strike, you have to figure out an alternate option (happened a few times). You can learn so much ... - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I learned how to travel alone, about the British communications industry, and I just really grew as a person. It was 10000% worthwhile. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I learned so much about myself while abroad. To be able to explore an entirely new country, to travel to new places, to learn about other cultures and realities, not to mention, London is simply beautiful, I felt so alive in the city. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
October 29, 2020 I Need To Go Back
Yes! I loved the professors, it's easy to connect with other students in the program. The location of my housing was unbeatable, and I felt extremely comfortable in London. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
how to be independent and adapt to another culture - Indiana University - Bloomington View Entire Review
Learned a new city, became even more independent, visited several cities, met a solid group of friends. - Fordham University View Entire Review
The program really didn't change anything and I really didn't gain anything from the education. I felt like I never left America. American students. American university. I did appreciate most of the staff and the opportunities they provided, but my coursework provided nothing new or interesting. I feel like I wasted money. - Syracuse University View Entire Review
Past Review Living In London
Going abroad changes your life. You are able to learn a lot about yourself and it makes you appreciate your friendships at home a lot more. You get to travel to a lot of cool places and meet people from all over the world. - Trinity University View Entire Review
It was amazing. Honestly the best four months of my life. I loved living around and constantly encountering people who did not have any of the same upbringing that I had. But I also completely and totally enjoyed all the Syracuse students in the program as well. - Fordham University View Entire Review
