This program is amazing. I am so happy that I had the opportunity to study abroad after completing my first-year at UD. I thought the classes were challenging at times but the professors adapted them so your time outside of class was not consumed by studying. The experience abroad is a class in itself I learned so much about myself, my classmates, and about my host country. I loved my experience in Rome and the other cities that I visited on the weekends. I will never forget the trips that I took or the sites that I saw on my way to dinner. The location was amazing! I would recommend this program to a future student because it is an once in a life time experience. It is fun, but you are also getting class credit that is applied to your major or minor. You also get to know other people who make up the UD community. I really loved it because the group that I went with created our own community in Rome and we traveled and conquered Italy together.

It was the best experience of my life. I highly recommend students to study abroad if they get the chance to.

It is an experience of a life time. Not only do you get to see a different culture's way of life but you get to experience it. Being a business major made it very interesting to see how businesses are run over seas and how we do business with other countries.

It is an amazing experience.

Never, EVER, pass up the opportunity to study abroad! It has been the best part of my UD experience!

They should know to come excited and ready to learn and have fun abroad!! It's a once in a lifetime experience!

I would absolutely recommend this program to everyone; it is a wonderful all-around experience that every student could take value from. UD Study Abroad has helped me get to know myself, and grow to be an independent, well-rounded individual.

I had an amazing experience with this program. The most rewarding thing in my opinion was meeting so many different people that you get to spend the rest of your time at UD with. The most challenging was balancing schoolwork and all the fun things that you want to get done. The most memorable things were just seeing all the most famous monuments that you never though you would be able to.

I am very glad I participated in this trip. It was such an amazing opportunity!

I think students should try to expand their cultural awareness as much as possible. I tried to make a point to talk to someone new every time we went out and ended up meeting some great people form Germany, Australia, the Netherlands, and other countries because I branched out and talked to them.

Studying abroad in Rome was one of the best decisions I have ever made. My experiences in and out of the classroom helped me gain an appreciation for the Italian culture. Great food, fun nightlife, and awesome weather!

This is the experience of a lifetime so if you get the chance to study abroad DO IT! When people ask me my favorite part of this trip I cannot give them an answer because I loved every part of it!

I would recommend this program. You have the opportunity to experience a completely different culture and step outside of the UD bubble.

I would encourage every single college student to experience studying abroad. It's truly an amazing experience and not only did I learn a lot academically, but I learned a lot about myself as well.

I throughly enjoyed my study abroad experience! I gained a new understanding of myself while being exposed to the new culture and people that surrounded me. Overall the study abroad program is a very powerful and positive.

I would definitely recommend it. It's a great experience to learn new things about the culture and about the people you travel with. The classes are not too overbearing and there is plenty of time to do your own thing. I would recommend it because Rome is the greatest city in the world.

This program was amazing! The fellow students become life long friends and you learn so much about the other cultures. It is such a cool experience to see the different places.

I highly recommend this program for students. The whole experience of going outside of your country and comfort zone was truly a growing experience for me. Not only will you experience new sites and cultures but you'll also make many new friends and aquaintences on this trip. It's an experience of a lifetime and no one should miss out on it

It is an amazing opportunity. I would recommend it to everyone!

This program helps each student grow. It teaches you different cultures and how to be independent while still having direction available. It is a once in a lifetime chance. The skills and lessons that you learn abroad are unique and unlike anything you can learn anywhere else. If you have the chance to study abroad DO IT!! Take full advantage of this amazing oppurtunity; it's more than worth the money.

There's nothing quite like Italy.

you grow so much as a person, and become more independent than you could ever imagine

Studying abroad in Rome was an invaluable, once in a lifetime experience! I loved being a tourist and seeing the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, the Vatican, and the Panthenon. I enjoyed immersing myself into the Roman culture, traveling throughout Italy, visiting Paris, and meeting new friends.

Future students should know that the time spend in the foreign country of their choice goes by fast so they should make the most of it from day one. I would definitely recommend studying abroad.

Experiencing a culture vastly different than ours in the States and immersing myself in the culture helped to give a new perspective on the world and going through this with great people led to amazing life-long friendships.

Don't be scared and hang out with people you know. It's good to branch out and try new things.

The cultural experience itself is reward enough. However, you also get the opportunity to meet many new people that go to UD and make new friends!

Cultural experience is something you need to see for yourself. No words can describe the feeling.

I never thought this program would change my perspective on cultures, but it did. I can't wait to travel the world to experience other cultures.

There is actual school work involved when you study abroad, and it takes time, but it doesn't stop you from experiencing the country, you just have to put in the time and effort. I would recommend any program going to any country.

I felt this program was completely worth the money and time away from home. I was able to get 7 credit hours out of the way, and got super close with a ton of new people. I highly recommend this trip

Studying abroad in Rome was an amazing experience. If you are thinking about studying abroad, I strongly encourage doing so. Being able to experience the food and culture of Italy for five weeks was unforgettable. It was also great meeting so many UD business students.

Classes are very challenging but the trip is AMAZING

Best experience I have had during my college years by far! If you have the opportunity, you won't regret going abroad.

Dear Future Students, after an amazing summer in Rome, I would like to give you some advice. First, don't be afraid to be open-minded and outgoing. I knew absolutely nobody going into the trip but quickly made many friends and experienced a culture that is accepting and outgoing. Classes are very rigorous for a 5 week program because they contain a lot of hours in a short amount of time. Organization is key along with time management. Don't be afraid to explore. The world is yours in Italy so try and live a little. This is a once in a lifetime experience, make the most of it.

It was the most unforgettable experience I've ever had. If I could do it 100x over again, I would.

I strongly encourage taking a language there. It helps you feel more comfortable in the environment and makes you adapt more to the culture. I really enjoyed my experience and I wish I could go back.

This program tests your independence and challenges you to become a well-rounded individual. During the week, you learn how to manage your time with classes while still seeing beautiful sites in Rome. The weekends are wonderful since you are free to explore other cities. Throughout the trip, you have experiences that help you grow as a person which is incredibly rewarding. Choosing to spend five weeks in Italy for this study abroad program was easily the best decision I've ever made.

This program was incredible! It is an invaluable experience to be immersed into Italian culture with other UD students and faculty. I would definitely recommend this program to everyone, if you have the opportunity to go it is a must!
