John N The University of Texas at Austin
"My trip has changed my future plans. I had such a great experience that I want to go back and teach. "
anna c The University of Texas at Austin
"I gained friends and the ability to look at things from a different perspective. Like I mentioned before, there is not only an American way to do things. My experience also taught me to take myself a little bit less serious, which I desperately needed. American universities are some of the best and most rigorous, which is great,..."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"Yes. I've met people that I now consider my best friends. I've traveled all over Europe and ventured into Africa. I've pursued academic and personal dreams. Ask yourself when you will ever have an opportunity again in your life to spend the better part of a year away from your work, school, and family. Don't waste that oppo..."
Charlie B The University of Texas at Austin

Kenneth P The University of Texas at Austin
"This experience truly changed my perspective on the world, and therefore my life, as cliche as that sounds. I don't really know how to describe the manner in which it did so, or how I've changed in all the minute ways, because after hearing people talk about it but then experiencing it for myself, I really believe it is somethin..."
Kaley B The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned a lot about my self and improved my Spanish skills while having a wonderful time."
sarah b The University of Texas at Austin
"YES. I loved it!!! I discovered what I want to study in grad school/do for the rest of my life, I am planning on going back to NZ for a postdoc or a permanent job. Learning Maori was eye-opening, the culture is so different and there are many concepts you cannot understand except in Maori."
Sarah G The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned a lot during my time abroad. I learned about a different culture, I learned more Spanish and I learned how people function in developing countries. I was certainly impressed by some aspects of public health in the Dominican Republic, so much that I think we can learn a thing or two from them here in America. I also ..."
Mohammed M The University of Texas at Austin
"DEFINITELY I WOULD NOT CHANGE A THING..."
CINDY T The University of Texas at Austin
"I gained more independence. I gained my parents trust in me to be more independent. I learned a lot about myself and my goals in life. I had an extremely difficult time abroad in the best possible way. I made friends that i'll never forget. I had host parents that I sometimes liked more than my own parents. I wish I could do it ..."
jacqueline g The University of Texas at Austin
"I gained tremendous insight from immersing myself in a new culture, traveling through Europe with new friends, and living and learning a new language and history. Throwing myself into a new situation with new people was eye opening and a truly unforgettable experience. I learned the importance of independence and planning, and ..."

"Marchutz changed my life. I've always liked art, but never had the opportunity to pursue it. Now I have the courage and confidence to be an artist. This study abroad experience will expose your weaknesses and your strengths. I learned to make decisions for myself. I learned how to be responsible and how to take it easy. I realiz..."
