I gained strength, bravery, resilience, knowledge, and compassion. It was incredibly worthwhile. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I think academically/Arabic-wise it was a good choice for me. I learned a lot from my elective courses - about new forms of research, about honest perspectives on the Middle East and its current issues, about Jordanian society.

I learned that the people of Jordan and the surrounding areas are incredibly welcoming and diverse. These people have a different religion, speak a different language, and live across the world from me, but we are not that different from each other.

So much language proficiency, many amazing relationships and more cultural awareness. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
The trip was worthwhile. I taught me a lot about another culture, the problems faced by people in that area of the world, and just how much news were are shielded from as Americans. It definitely changed my perspective of the world and readjusted my priorities once I came home. A student - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
More so than the language, there is quite a bit I learned about myself and living that I'm applying in my life today. There are some parts of Arab customs that I've adopted into my own. A student - The College of New Jersey View Entire Review
Independence, confidence, the importance of a global perspective. Harold L - University of Maine - Orono View Entire Review
Colloquial Arabic improved! Amman was great, the program was not. yasmine x - University of Texas - Arlington View Entire Review
