John R Providence College
"Yes. I feel that my spanish had improved. I have met so many interesting people that I know I will stay in close contact with when I get back to the united states. I was independent before but now I am more confident on my own. The list just goes on and on. the best experience of my life so far. "

"I have learned more about myself, become more independent, and made lifelong friends. There's nothing better than losing yourself in a culture and realizing that along the way you've gained so much more than you'd ever thought possible. It's not even possible to explain in words; it really is an event I believe can only be exp..."
Nadine Z Providence College
"It was extremely worthwhile. I experienced things i could not have otherwise. My only complaint was my Australian program leader- she was extremely unhelpful and often times discouraging. Besides that my experience was a one in a lifetime. "
Kristina G Providence College
"My study abroad experience was unparalleled. I am more open-minded about other cultures and by the end of my experience I felt like a Florentine "local."

Kathryn T Providence College
"Absolutely"
Zack G Providence College
"Absolutely worthwhile. I am really happy I chose Denmark because it allowed me to see a part of the world that not too many people see or even think to see. It was really neat having essentially one study abroad program within Copenhagen, allowing us to have 700 kids in our program and have a unifying thing! "

"It was absolutely worthwhile. At first it was somewhat difficult getting used to being so far away from home and in a new country/culture. But once I got settled in, I loved it.

Meaghan W Providence College
"I have learned a tremendous amount about France and all of europe. My experience has exposed me to a plethora of interesting options for my future plans. This was the first time I lived in an apartment alone, it was like a dream getting used to this typically new experience in an atypical environment. I immediately felt at eas..."
Bridget B Providence College
"It was most definitely worthwhile. I gained a greater world view and much more independence, all while taking classes and researching in another language. I understand myself a lot better now and know what I can and can't handle."
Melissa M Providence College
"Yes it was extremely worthwhile, I would recommend people do a yearlong study abroad, of two programs and different places. Take advantage of study abroad while you are a student, because you won't be able to travel like this again. I plan on returning to Jordan after I graduate to perform research on Food Security and Water."
Natalie C Providence College
"I loved studying in Australia! The country is so beautiful and so diverse, and it really gave me a new insight into respecting other cultures. I am much more aware of other cultures, and have learned things about the surrounding area that I would have never learned back home. Being so much closer to New Zealand and Japan durin..."

This experience really helped me to m..."
