m b Trinity University

I learned more spanish, gained more confidence in ..."
Cat C Trinity University
"Studying abroad came with some good experiences and some bad, but it was definitely worth while to learn about myself, and how I fit into China. Studying abroad actually shook up the plans I had for after graduation, so though it put me in a state of uncertainty, it made what I want to do and don't want to do a little clearer."
A student Trinity University

A student Brandeis University
"I gained independence and became cultured and knowledgable about European history"
A student Brandeis University
"I gained a lot from my experience abroad. My understanding of the world as well as myself were the two biggest aspects.

Freshman year is a big part to college because we fin..."

A student Brandeis University
"I have a much higher sense of self-confidence and I know that I can handle almost any situation. I also learned that I can meet new people and get along with them just fine. I learned a lot about myself and have grown as a person which is always a good thing. It was absolutely worthwhile. "
Ailie V Trinity University

A student Brandeis University
"I learned a lot about what it's like to live and experience a different culture. I've been abroad on vacation several times, but this was the first time I've spent such a long period of time abroad. I got to experience the city, the country, and the culture in a totally different way."

My experience abroad was 100% worth while. "
Kayla R Brandeis University
