Experiences of our students
My journey to a semester abroad in Japan
At the International College of Liberal Arts (iCLA) in Kofu, I found a college that fits well with my current master’s program and, at the same time, offers me the opportunity to get to know Japan not just as a traveler, but as part of my everyday student life.
The summer definitely lived up to its promises
Ultimately, I would recommend Seattle to anyone who loves nature, is interested in business and technology, and is ready to take their experience into their own hands.
Looking back: My semester abroad at the University of Brighton
I wouldn’t trade the opportunity to study abroad for anything, and I can truly recommend it to everyone. Time passes far too quickly, but every single second was absolutely worth it.
