"I learned great and valuable things from Spain. Go to Spain, go to Granada. However, go through a different provider. You will leave feeling frustrated, abandoned, and more if you choose API. "

"I’m better at Spanish. I would never choose sol again. "
Adriana Texas A&M University - College Station
"I learned a lot about myself and who I travel well/ live well with and what types of personalities just don't mesh. "

"I loved working abroad and living in Sydney and my company was great. However at first Global Experiences paired me with a small company where the manager was the whole company. It did not match my interests and when I asked to change companies and interview again they were reluctant to change. Eventually I said I either needed ..."

"I absolutely loved being in Germany and there was time to travel around the country and see how diverse of a place it is. However I really went to Germany to an educational experience and I didn't get that. Part of the problem with the summer program is that it does not match up with the German university schedule. For half of t..."

"Yes. While I was there I experienced a broad range of emotions (like everyone I suppose), with a lot of them being negative. The fact that my girlfriend and I were going through hard times made it that much harder for me. I set unrealistic expectations for myself and so was disappointed when I didn't achieve some of them. It..."

"I got to briefly experience the Malaysian culture, make some new friends both foreign and domestic, and visit a new country. I learned about new coastal engineering practices. For what I ended up spending on this experience, I do not feel it was worthwhile."

"Living in a huge city as a resident rather than a tourist"
Leland Cook Texas A&M University - College Station
"I truly gained a larger worldview, France is even much different than USA "
Kaitlin Potter Texas A&M University - College Station
"It was definitely worthwhile. The most frustrating this was that we'd go on our excursions, but the people wouldn't be on time. As a very punctual person, being in a country where it isn't normal to be punctual can be punctual."
Calista Moats Texas A&M University - College Station
"I gained a greater sense of independence. After traveling without the help of my parents and living in a completely different culture, I have much more confidence in myself. While there were times where I definitely wanted to come home, overall I would highly recommend studying abroad."
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"A stronger grasp of the grammar. I think it was worth it. I also found a stray dog and ended up bringing him home. He's asleep at my feet as I write this. Taking him on walks while still in Russia helped me to meet and talk to a lot of different locals. I also learned technical vocabulary for veterinarians and the governm..."

"it takes time to learn, adapt, and feel comfortable in a new culture."
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"I learned a lot about Germany's political system and their involvement in the arms trade. "
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"A world perspective on things was definitely gained while on this program. While learning about issues at our home institutions, we get the American scope of things, while in Costa Rica we learned how to take issues from different angles which was cool. I still think America as a community is very far from living sustainably but..."
Andrew N Texas A&M University - College Station
"My experience abroad taught me that some countries focus more on work than on relaxation. Because Singapore is primarily a service-based economy, their human capital is very strong. What I noticed is that the employees of the company where I was interning at would work long hours for very little pay. Thus I was somewhat understa..."
Kit L Texas A&M - College Station
"I learned how to travel alone with confidence, work with people who are different than I am, and experience different cultures. All the hassle of paperwork and financial stress that comes with a study abroad trip was completely worth it. "
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"I continued to learn about different cultures and history. I loved the people I met but struggled to grow closer to them due to different schedules and assignments. "
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"I learned a lot more German and things that I can use in the future about museums."
A student Texas A&M University - College Station
"An understanding of the culture and the language is what I came here and definitely will take back. The history of the language has deepened my understanding of the culture and so has interacting with them on a day to day basis. Overall I'm satisfied with coming here, and hope to do it again soon. Though quality of daily service..."
Derrell J Texas A&M - College Station
"I learned a lot, but most importantly I learned to step out of my comfortable zone and try new things. "
Gabrielle Harrison Texas A&M University - College Station
"I don't think there's a single person in our group that didn't make some serious realizations while here. It'd be a joke to try to sum it up on this review."
