"Yes, it was totally worthwhile. I think I learned a lot more about myself and my parents' culture and it made me thankful to have had such great opportunities in the States. "
Suyun H The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes. I've always wanted to stay for an extended period of time in a foreign country so it was perfect for that. It has given me a perspective outside the U.S. that everyone should have. It hasn't changed my future plans."
Kevin R The University of Texas at Austin
"My study abroad experience was great. It's definitely one where you decide how much you get out of it. RESIST THE TEMPTATION TO STAY ON FACEBOOK ALL DAY. Go out and see the city, arrange weekend trips to other cities, and you will be amazed at what you can see and do. Puerto Vallarta has a bungee jump and a zoo where you can..."
Holly D The University of Texas at Austin
"Study Abroad in Paris was one of the most amazing experiences I've had so far. When you go abroad you have this idea of knocking out all the sights and you make a list of all the museums you're going to see. But once you get there you kind of realize that it's not all about sightseeing. It's more about just living there. You..."
Emilie M The University of Texas at Austin

Kellye W The University of Texas at Austin

Funda S The University of Texas at Austin
"Very much so. The U.S. appears different from the time I left, and I appreciated my Mexican culture much more. I need to explore the Earth before I go."

dana g The University of Texas at Austin
"My study abroad experience changed my life in many ways. You can learn so much about yourself when you are placed in a foreign environment, especially as you observe your own reaction to the sudden change. In a situation where you are completely on your own without any familiar faces you are forced to express yourself to others ..."
