Zoe Zavrotny's exchange semester at University College Dublin
"I took full advantage of being in Ireland and took all classes related to Irish history and writing. I really believe that my time here helped me really figure out what I want to do with my future. If I hadn't come here, I would've never truly known how much I enjoyed Irish literature, and that I'd like to make it part of my future career."
Jasmine Namata's semester interning in Tanzania
"What was great about my experience abroad is that I got to apply my theoretical public health knowledge on a global scale. Putting into practice public health communication and having an impact on communities was a fulfilling and robust experience."
Harriet Dadzie's exchange at Vienna University of Business & Economics
"Being abroad in Vienna taught me not to be afraid of figuring out things by myself. If I get lost or can't find what I'm looking for, I change and create an even better adventure."
Alina Saif's semester with Maryland-in-Copenhagen
"The hesitations of going abroad as minority group members due to safety, cultural reservations, or lack of seeing potential growth is common. However, I MUST urge you to do it!"
Madeline Case's semester on Destination Rome
"Be respectful of the culture, yet also very cautious and responsible. It’s easy to get caught up in all the fun, but remember why you went there and the image you’re representing."
Charlotte Li on exchange at University of Auckland
"I think the best thing to do is to be resilient in your beliefs and engage in constructive discussions with people from other countries with different viewpoints; we're abroad to learn more, after all."
