Past Review C Don!
I learned about wonderful ways to think, learn, and live my life. - Bentley University View Entire Review
How to shop/cook for myself. So much in general about different types of people. Traveling to several different countries allowed me to take a look at other cultures, which in my eyes is one of the most worthwhile things you can do. - Bentley University View Entire Review
Past Review 1 Chatham Row.
Learned how to truly live on my own. Learned how to travel efficiently and effectively. Learned how to integrate myself with people who I (for the most part) cannot relate to at all. - Bentley University View Entire Review
This was my first time out of the US and I learned an incredible amount about the world. I met people from many different countries and explored Ireland and parts of Europe. This was one of the best experiences of my life! - Kansas State University View Entire Review
Broadened perspective. Countless stories and experiences that I'd be kicking myself until I died if i hadn't done. It was the most worthwhile thing I have done since I learned how to read. - Bentley University View Entire Review
A student studying abroad with Direct Enrollment: Dublin - University College Dublin
I learned a lot about different cultures and the locals. Dublin is a great place to travel to different areas in Europe. I also got practice meeting people (something I'm horrible at) and traveling on my own. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
I believe that I learned a lot about myself and discovered things that I would have not normally discovered. I also traveled to 9 different countries and was able to learn about their cultures - Bentley University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself from this program. I was able to see a good portion of Europe which was awesome. Definitely worthwhile, very glad I decided to come here - Bentley University View Entire Review
Learned to be my own travel agent. Its up to you to make plans to go traveling and managing all of the information definatly helped me in my everyday life. Met people in so many countries, saw so many places and people. It was beyond worthwhile, I would go back 100%. - Villanova University View Entire Review
Past Review Time Of My Life
Learned about world travel, different cultures, European history - University of California - San Diego View Entire Review
Yes - Boston College View Entire Review
Yes, it was my first time abroad, and is an experience everyone should have. You become a stronger person by traveling and you see things you could never imagine. - Boston College View Entire Review
I learned who I am when it comes to experiencing new cultures. I've learned how i deal with situations that I have never had to deal with before. Also I learned how to adapt to the Irish culture and am able to bring them back home. - Bentley University View Entire Review
I learned how to navigate a new place by myself and to take advantage of everything around me, especially asking for help when you need it. The experience was definitely worthwhile. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
Past Review Fantastic
it was great - Kansas State University View Entire Review
Past Review Slainte!
I learned how similar students really are despite being from different parts of the world. - The University of Texas at Austin View Entire Review
As it was my first international experience, I enjoyed every moment of it. Loved meeting people from across the globe and learning about Irish culture and lifestyle. - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned how easy it is to make friends once you open up to people. It was so worthwhile! - St. Mary's College of Maryland View Entire Review
It was educating to learn how people in other countries live day to day. I think it made me think more critically about world issues. It was definitely worthwhile. - Bentley University View Entire Review
I learned so much from studying abroad that I'm not quite sure how to put into words. This experience was probably the best I've ever had. I wouldn't change a thing. - San Jose State University View Entire Review
Definitely worthwhile. - San Jose State University View Entire Review
Yes. If you go during the Spring, you have a 3 week Spring break which provided me with time to travel across Ireland for a week and backpack throughout Europe for 2 weeks. - Bentley University View Entire Review
I think studying abroad gives students an independence. Having to fend for yourself, even if you are with friends, so far from your parents is challenging and exciting! I had to buy a cell phone plan, open a bank account, all things I had not yet done for myself in the US. - Boston College View Entire Review
Living in another country was a great experience. It is important to remember that there is a whole great world outside of the US - Boston College View Entire Review
