It was great except I cannot choose my courses for next year and almost had a panic attack since I thought my transcript didn't send properly because of this rating program :) Nadia Mushtaq - Wellesley College View Entire Review
Learned how to deal with living on my own/experiencing loneliness and mild depression A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Too much to type here Jake Lassu - Duke University View Entire Review
I learned how to live more independently, how to navigate a city on my own, and how to balance work with an active social life. I was able to travel all over Europe and to learn so much about art, theater, and history just by exploring London. I am glad that I chose the LSE program as I was still able to participate in a rigorou... A student - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I matured a lot and gained independence being abroad. At the LSE, the academic and administrative system is very different from what I'm used to in the states and at times I felt like nobody really cared for you. However, this pushed me to adopt this "solve your own problems" mentality and gave me more confidence as well. I trav... A student - Wellesley College View Entire Review
I got to learn a lot about so many different cultures. It was an amazing experience. I didn't expect to meet someone new every single day. Brianna R - Bentley University View Entire Review
Learned how to better communicate with individuals from different cultures. It was absolutely worthwhile. Carly S - Bentley University View Entire Review
With LSE being such a well-known, prestigious school worldwide, there were so many people from different countries in the summer program. I was able to see the world from so many different perspectives and learn new ways of thinking. Studying abroad at LSE was definitely worthwhile; I would do it again in a heartbeat.

I learned how to take a condensed course and how to study quickly and efficiently. This was a worthwhile skill. I also learned how a European culture is different from America. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
A new perspective on economics A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
Living in a huge city as a resident rather than a tourist Leland Cook - Texas A&M University - College Station View Entire Review
One thing that I learned was that history is so much more enjoyable learning about if you are in the topic's origin. A student - Trinity University View Entire Review
Aside from academics, I gained a lot of information on London, England and the rest of UK. It was definately worthwhile. A student - Brandeis University View Entire Review
I learned a lot about finance and had a great time exploring London and Europe. It was definitely a worthwhile experience A student - Bentley University View Entire Review
It was not so much gaining from living abroad but studying at LSE from which I gained the most experience from. The class I took was very interesting albeit being at a higher difficulty than Bentley's classes on average. Gave me a great taste of what it is like studying at LSE and how their campus is like. A student - Bentley University View Entire Review
Living in London for 6 weeks was incredible, the classes were great--taught by reputable names with students from all over the world Matthew C - Bentley University View Entire Review
It was worthwhile, the instruction was amazing but one class over a three week period leaves you with plenty of time to get familiar with the city. A student - Middlebury College View Entire Review
