Going to Florence was the opportunity of a lifetime. It was one of the best, most educational and rewarding experiences I have ever had. I highly recommend that everybody go abroad for at least a semester. It is something you will never forget.

Studying in Northern Ireland changed my life. Once I stepped outside of Ohio, I learned about what the world could offer and teach me. I would recommend this program to ANYONE. There is no other way to gain the experience I had; meeting people and visiting amazing places.

My time in Geneva was more than the trip of a life time, it has become a part of who I am and how I perceive the environment around me.

I spent the Fall 2009 Semester in Geneva, Switzerland, where I was not only able to study in one of the most livable cities in the world, but I also had the opportunity of endless travel time in other European countries.
