Alex V The University of Texas at Austin
"This experience was amazing; I could not have asked for a better summer. I loved getting to know everyone on the program, meeting locals, learning about French language, food, culture, and history. I feel much more culturally aware and my French language skills have vastly improved after completing this program."

Yarid P The University of Texas at Austin
"Absolutely. My future plans already include a trip back next summer to visit my friends and old familiar places and my further future plans could include and job and home there. I was worried when I first went that Scotland would be too much like "America" and I wasn't choosing the most exotic location but I couldn't have been h..."
Janet F The University of Texas at Austin
"I never really knew how independent I was until I left for Paris. Paris has shown me that I can be on my own, without being afraid of it. I traveled to Amsterdam on my own and I loved it. As long as I am careful I can do anything I want. I now want to travel to China after I graduate. After all, you will only be at this place at..."

Charlotte H The University of Texas at Austin
"It was interesting being in a country where you are the minority. I met lots of interesting people, made lifelong friends, saw amazing places, and managed to go to class a few times along the way. I want to go back and travel more. My academic interests didn't really change. I took think more as a cultural experience than an..."
Rebecca H The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes. I really enjoyed the program overall. I just wish I had known more about what the acutal course was about, I was completely unprepared for that. "
Vienna M The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes, it was worthwhile. I learned a lot about myself, good and bad qualities. I also realized that maybe advertising is not a good field for me. I enjoyed the food and shopping in Hong Kong. I was pretty surprised at how westernized it is, even though I knew that it was colonized by England. It was different from what I expe..."
Caroline Y The University of Texas at Austin
"I really enjoyed learning about the Spanish culture and speaking the language. I really appreciate the US alot more after coming back from being abroad. Living abroad made me feel more confident about living other places in the world and let me know that if I set my mind to it, I can make it happen."
Marisa C The University of Texas at Austin
"I have an interest in international comparative medical education so seeing how Danish medicine differed from American medicine was great, from the actual practice of medicine all the way to governmental political structures and policy in place. Not only have I become more aware globally but even within the US because American s..."
