"Being abroad is amazing even though John Cabot really needs to get their act together. I still enjoyed the Roman life and living in Trastevere. John Cabot just needs to get better professors and be more lenient on their attendance policy if they are going to cater to abroad students. "

"Being able to travel around London alone and feel safe. Learning about the culture through a course but also learning on your own through the internship how life was like in London was worthwhile."

"Yes. If you go during the Spring, you have a 3 week Spring break which provided me with time to travel across Ireland for a week and backpack throughout Europe for 2 weeks. "

"The internship was useful as it allows you to see what it is like to work in a Corporate in England. Classes are very informative but the second paper was unnecessary."

"Traveling Europe was why I went, I did it, and I loved it"
A student Bentley University
"The program wasn't probably worthwhile in the end for me, I live abroad already so studying at Bentley was already kind of studying abroad for me. I had an amazing time at Bond, and had fun while I was there. But the expenses wouldn't make me do it again."

A student Bentley University
"I learned a lot about myself. Things didn't go quite as I had imagined, but it helped me realize a lot of what i do and do not want in life. It also forced me to face challenges on my own, which helped me grow as a person. It was definitely a worthwhile experience. I wouldn't trade it for anything. "
A student Bentley University
"I definitely learned how to be more independent. The school doesn't help you along the way they do at Bentley which could be seen as a bad or good thing. During the beginning I definitely hated it but I think I was thankful for it by the end. I also learned so much about other places that I never knew before and didn't even real..."
