Cyprus is great Past Review

By (Biology, Clemson University) - abroad from 01/22/2015 to 05/27/2015 with

University of Nicosia - Global Semesters: Nicosia - Semester in Cyprus

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
The Global Semesters program "Semester in the Mediterranean" in Cyprus was awesome and I would absolutely recommend it. Not only was travel within in Cyprus included in the program fee, but so was 10 days of travel to Italy, Greece, and Spain. The program coordinators in Cyprus are very nice and helpful, and overall I think the program was well worth it.
