A student studying abroad with Syracuse University: Strasbourg - Syracuse University in Strasbourg
I learned, first and foremost, that I don't like living in France and I don't like being forced to speak French. Which are very useful things to learn! I went into the experience expecting to double major in Music and French, and by the end of it I knew that I wanted to just focus on Music. I learned that I can be a functional, ... - Barnard College View Entire Review
I gained knowledge about French life and the cultural difference between and France and America, I was also able to learn more French and gain a different perspective on area's outside the U.S.. Yes it was very much worthwhile, and I would do it again! - Syracuse University View Entire Review
Of course it was worthwhile. I met all of my goals for myself and for my studies and exceeded all of my expectations for this year abroad. I grew so much as a person...it would be impossible to list all of the ways in which I've benefited from this year. - Trinity University View Entire Review
It was amazing because I learned that I love european culture and I particularly loved being immersed in French culture. - Trinity University View Entire Review

I learned that you can never be too careful. - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I learned that I don't know how to manage my finances...I am coming back with a negative balance in my bank account.... Overall I became a more independent person, I can plan trips on my own, choose courses without my an advisor holding my hand, and make friends more easily. - Fordham University View Entire Review
It was worthwhile because it taught me how to live with other people and how to be strong in a foreign country where you don't speak the language as well - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I traveled so much, which was great because not only did I learn a lot about french culture, but more than 4 other cultures as well. It opened my eyes to a lot of new things in the world, and I now know that the 'american way isn't the only way'. I am glad for coming abroad, because I have changed and come to realization of what... - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I became much more independent and confident speaking French as well as traveling alone. - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I gained proficiency in French, a desire to live abroad again; came up with the idea of doing Grad school in Europe, and changing my major to be able to add in more Language classes. - Ithaca College View Entire Review
I was able to open my mind to new ideas and experiences, it was so worthwhile - Syracuse University View Entire Review

It was the most worthwhile choice I've made thus far! I made life long friends, learned a new language, have a new french mom, and got to experience the rest of the world outside my bubble. - Fordham University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about French idioms and culture, and it was definitely worthwhile. - Fordham University View Entire Review
its harder then you think to learn a language and live with someone who can't speak english, but it is worthwhile for your improvement and the laughs you will have - Fordham University View Entire Review
A new perspective of my home institution (Barnard). Absolutely worthwhile. - Barnard College View Entire Review
There were many things I did not care for in Strasbourg. Strasbourg is not an accurate representation of France--please, don't get this confused. During my stay, I was always surprised by how rude people in Strasbourg were...and how unbelievably nice people were in other regions in France. If you want to go to a foreign country,... - Syracuse University View Entire Review
I think I became more independent, open and flexible, and decided that I should participate in another study abroad experience later in life - Villanova University View Entire Review
