Qiongqiong Y The University of Texas at Austin
"It was a worthwhile experience, but one needs to understand Norway is out of the way in comparison to European countries. The weather is also a factor that should go into the decision making process."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I wish I would have been more exposed to Ticos my own age rather than only Americans. I did not know I was going to be placed in a school of Americans."

"I gained more independence during my time abroad. Going abroad was definitely worthwhile. However, I was not particularly satisfied by the program."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"It was worthwhile because I needed to Study Abroad in order to graduate, but I would rather have gone during a summer semester so that I did not waste so much of my time."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I gained an appreciation of the quality of life and low cost of living in Texas. I decided last minute to study abroad and got into the Paris program when someone dropped out, so it was not my first choice of program for that semester. If I could redo it I would go Asia where things are cheaper and the weather is warmer."

"I ENJOYED BEING ABROAD AND TRAVELING. I REALLY ENJOYED ISLAMIC CULTURE IN SPAIN- IT WAS THE BEST CLASS I COULD HAVE TAKEN. I WISH THAT I HAD BEEN IN A BIGGER CITY WHERE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASIER TO TRAVEL TO OTHER CITIES. IF I WAS DOING IT ALL OVER I WOULD PROBABLY GO WITH A DIFFERENT PROGRAM- ONE THAT OFFERS AN APARTMENT WIT..."
Melissa B The University of Texas at Austin
"While it may sound cliche, I did learn a lot about myself while abroad. From what is the most conducive learning environment for me to what my political views on certain issues really are, its hard to list out just how much I learned while abroad."
A student The University of Texas at Austin
"I learned how to live on my own with other American students. Because it was an American program, I got to know other Americans and learn about the Danish culture with them. Unfortunately I did not have a chance to meet that many other Danish people because of the program itself. I only picked this program because I've always wa..."
