Past Review
By Hillary R (Business - Management, The University of Texas at Austin) for
University of Bath: Bath - Direct Enrollment & Exchange
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
Yes. I am more independent and less afraid to try new things. The thing that stands out most though, is that I am completely an American girl. I don't plan on ever living outside the US and just love how everything is done here as opposed to abroad. I am a person of routine and comfort zones though, so that probably added to my stress and love of the US. I would, however, study abroad again in a heartbeat.
