It was worthwhile to live in a different place and have the chance to visit Europe for the first time. Jack K - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Yes, I gained valuable experience living independently and adjusting to a new school and new country. I met a lot of great people and learned things in courses that I wouldn’t have been able to take at my home university. It was also an incredible opportunity to travel around Europe. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned a great deal from this experience. I learned about the politics and culture of Britain, and how Britain differs and compares to America. I learned about other European and non-European countries from friends, which was very interesting and beneficial. I learned more about how America is viewed by people in other parts ... Sarah Nelson - Middlebury College View Entire Review
It was absolutely worthwhile. Not only was I able to study and live with local students, I was able to travel to cities in the UK and Europe. It was incredible learning about the English culture, and I would do it all over again if I could! A student - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
Absolutely, it was filled with personal growth and new experiences. Nadine Nasr - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned adaptability, flexibility, self-navigation, how to effectively navigate in a new academic structure, and SO much more. And of course, academically, my classes were challenging and engaging. I thoroughly enjoyed the material that I was researching! Kylie D - University of Maine - Farmington View Entire Review
It was very much worthwhile. I think being in a new environment can help test certain aspects about yourself. I learned that I can rely on myself for most things (something I don't necessarily do at home). A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
My favorite part of study abroad wasn't the studying. It was the travel. UEA's long Easter break (as well as shorter breaks here and there) allowed me to go all over Europe and the UK. I saw museums and cities that I have always dreamed of visiting. I discovered new places I loved (Scotland) far more than the places I thought I ...

I gained an awesome group of new friends, visited so many historic monuments, and improved myself. It was extremely worthwhile Eric L - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
I learned a lot about myself and that I am capable of a lot more than I thought. It was definitely worthwhile. A student - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
I grew as a person during my Study Abroad and I am grateful for what I was able to experience. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I certainly learned how to be more independent. It's one thing when you're at college, and you have at least the option to go home to see your family, and all your close friends are nearby. But when you're abroad you definitely have to learn how to cope with independence when you don't really have the possibility of just driving...

I learende how to live and travle alone and to become more indepentend Mackenzie Joy - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
I gained a much better understanding of the culture and history of Europe, as well as other countries' views of the U.S., which were very interesting. Definitely worthwhile to get to experience new countries that are so different from the U.S. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Definitely worthwhile Dakota Wright - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
I really grew as an individual in a way I did not feel I had access to at Middlebury. It was much more independent and liberating in a city as opposed to a small town A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
This experience was worthwhile. Even though it wasn't always the most carefree or fireworks amazing experience, I still met some great people and enjoyed my classes and feel like a part of the community. Most importantly though, it all depends on your outlook and how you approach the situation. If you wanna sit in your room and ... A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
About Britain, about Brits....Yes it was very worthwhile. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
a great time and many friends A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
It was! I made a lot of new friends, who were able to give me a cool insight on what the world thinks of American culture, as well as a great introduction to British culture. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned so much while being abroad: how to live independently, how to shed judgment and prejudice, how to live in the moment. It was definitely worthwhile. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
