"It was one of the greatest experiences of my life, solidifying my interest in marine biology and field research. It was not an experience that I would have gotten anywhere else."
Karissa L Clark University
"Very worthwile, I gained a different perspective on the world and different cultures around the world. I also gained practical experience, it was amazing. Costa Rica is a great country to study abroad in. "
Angela M Clark University
"It was absolutely amazing"
Tamar G Clark University
"It was definitely worthwhile. I had a lot of fun while at the same time, I learned a lot about the Australian culture as well as some things about American culture."
Christine A Clark University
"Real life experience in public health sector "
Andrea S Clark University - Worcester
"I loved it. It taught me that I can be independent and be fine so far away from home."
Freddie P Clark University
"I LOVED every minute of it....i suggest going abroad to everyone...i wish i had spent a year there! I met tons of wonderful people. lived with people from all over the world, and was 100 percent immersed in the culture (granted it wasn't drastically different, but different enough)"
Britney W Clark University
"For the future, I gained a whole new international understanding on racial perspectives. Ghana doesn't view race like America does, and it was interesting to take that perspective home with me."
Rachel B Clark University
"This experience is something I will remember forever, and I would never take it back for anything. It was so incredible, that I feel there are no words that I could place on the experience that would justify how wonderful it was. I feel so much more culturally aware and appreciative and the semester in Spain helped me determine ..."
Aliza S Clark University
"The immersion, hands down. Classes were great and they definitely supported us in our field assignments, but the time we spent in our communities was invaluable. I don't know of many other programs where cultural immersion as academically and socially crucial as it was for us. We were and will always be outsiders in the Dominica..."
Juliana K Clark University
"Yes yes yes. This is an experience I wouldn't trade for anything. It has been eye-opening, as well as ENDLESS fun. 6 months here and still not a dull moment. "
Max M Clark University
"Studying here has helped shaped my path academically and opened my interests to a new field of study."
Justin B Clark University
"This was the best experience of my entire life. I learned more about international development in one semester than I did in 3 years of college. The program is well-organized and Namibians are wonderful people. I wish I was still there."
Kimberly H Clark University
"This program was above and beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Though I learned a lot in the classrooms, I feel like the real lessons came from living in a different country, meeting people of all different ethnicities, and learning about Australian culture by experiencing it first hand. The landscape is beautiful, the p..."
Laurie C Clark University
"The program was amazing and an amazing experience. I will remember it for the rest of my life and plan on returning to Japan in the future."
Andrew H Clark University
"YES! I learned a lot about myself and matured a lot while abroad. I feel like I can handle anything now that I've survived living in another country. I have more confidence, more wordly knowledge, and I appreciate the effectiveness of my home country more. I improved my French and my understanding of French people (as not Parisi..."
Julie H Clark University
"YES. I plan on going back to Namibia as soon as I can. It was the most beneficial and amazing experience of my life and I miss it every day. I made great friends there that became my family, both Namibian and American, and cherish this experience and how it has impacted my life and future plans."
Siobhan K Clark University
"It was awesome. It was good to see academics from a different country. I made lifelong freinds there."
Francesca A Clark University
"I learned that the world is far more intricate than I originally thought. I learned to live in close quarters with my fellow students, professors and staff. Patience was definitely needed as well as team spirit. The experience also confirmed my passion and interest in conservation biology. "
Katherine F Clark University
"I had a different experience than other students because I went there already fluent in Japanese, so it was more learning how to function by myself than refining/learning a new language. Studying at Kansai Gaidai made me want to go back to Japan to teach English."
Eiji M Clark University
"My experience in the Turks and Caicos was amazing. I loved having the opportunity to live in and learn about the island and the country as a whole. There are so many things about it that you could only learn by experiencing yourself."
Linda V Clark University
"I give my experience a full 5 stars because of everything I gained while I was there. My French improved, I met life long friends, and it inspired me to definitely go back after graduating. I was considering taking a gap year between my masters degree, and now I know that I would like to go back to France for a year and teach En..."
Bronwyn D Clark University
"My experienced abroad definitely changed my future plans. Prior to Namibia I though that by studying international development I can enter into the profession I want, however, while having my internship in Namibia I realized that economics is much more useful. That realization has made me do double major in both econ and ID, ins..."
A B Clark University
"Yes, the classes were easy enough but educational. I will never forget the experiences and friends."
Silvia T Clark University
"I learned a lot about who I am - that I am brave and willing to take risks - in ways I was unable to comprehend before. I also gained so much valuable insight about what it really means to live in a global world, to be an American, and to exist in a culture with different values."
