I learned resilience, I learned how to truly love- people and places that touch your heart and last a lifetime. Jordan Colston - Minnesota State University, Mankato View Entire Review
The ability and knowledge that I could live on my own for an extended period of time. A real awareness of differences between cultures. A feeling of intimacy with a culture and art that shaped a whole way of life and perspective of art for centuries to come. How small yet important I felt compared to the art that surrounded ...

I went abroad when I was 18 years old. I feel as if I grew up there, passed a major life turning point. I learned so much about myself and the world around me, and had experience I will never forget. sami.barnett.12 - GAP Year Students View Entire Review
SO WORTH WHILE! It was my first time outside the US, I was alone, and it was the most beautiful time of my life. I wish I could go back with a better brain screwed on my head, but this is the process of life! olivia h - Santa Reparata International School of Art View Entire Review
This program is definitely worthwhile. Studying abroad changed my life for the better. It has motivated me to constantly aim to see the world, travel, and has broadened my ways of thinking. I am also more cultural because of this experience. Cameron P - Santa Reparata International School of Art View Entire Review
I learned that I can ignore bullies, but also that I can stand up to them and make sure they know they cannot pick on me. I've learned to depend on myself and not on others for help. A student - Santa Reparata International School of Art View Entire Review
I learned a lot about Italian culture, and the education system there- which will be extremely helpful to me in my own classroom. The teachers were extremely knowledgeable, and they really cared and inspired the students. It was absolutely worthwhile! A student - Kent State University View Entire Review
SRISA taught me about loving another culture, using another language, and appreciating the world around me... but that is not all. My view of art changed. I learned to see art in a new way. Emily W - Eastern Connecticut State University View Entire Review
Learning about another culture, experiencing such beautiful things, amazing food, amazing people. The list goes on and on. Amanda C - Santa Reparata International School of Art View Entire Review
I gained an awareness of those around me. I'm a white suburban middle class girl, and so I have never been in a situation that took me really outside of my comfort zone. This experience did that. I did not speak the same language as the majority, and so it taught me patience with those learning English. I also learned the true m...

I learned how different life was in Europe and how others view Americans. I also learned how to navigate between different countries alone. A student - Santa Reparata International School of Art View Entire Review
I make breakthroughs with my art because I was allowed to focus intensely on it and pushed to experiment and explore new methods and mediums. Even more importantly, I learned a lot about myself - about my likes and dislikes, and what I want out of life. I also gained some pretty awesome friends. A worthwhile experience that test...

I wouldn't choose this one again because it just wasn't long enough. I learned what I have always suspected: I will be an American Expat. A student - University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa View Entire Review
Studying abroad is the most important thing that I can recommend to any college student. You will gain world experience and get out of you comfort zone. Studying abroad helped me to see outside of my Mississippi bubble and look at art in a new way. Mickenzie R - Mississippi State University View Entire Review
What did i have to lose? It was most definitely worth it, most incredible experience I have had. To live in another country, and a place so rich in history and culture was surreal. kire E - Warren Wilson College View Entire Review
There are so many things I learned about art, Italian culture, history, architecture, and the list could go on and on. It was defiantly worthwhile. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to go and that I went through this program. A student - Santa Reparata International School of Art View Entire Review
I gained a broader sense of the world and the roll that I continually choose to play in it. I learned that there are so many lives out there that we will never get to see or experience, but as this is so, we all have the capability to see and experience as much as we can (especially as students) and I think it is important as yo... Thomas B - Western State College of Colorado View Entire Review
Yes it was totally worthwhile!!!!!!! I learned how to connect with a new culture, how to speak some of the language and how their culture is so different from ours. I loved every bit of it.... Loved it so much I took my mom back 3 years later. :) Natalie T - Missouri State University View Entire Review
