The most beautiful month
by: Hailey Piemonte - United StatesProgram: Lorenzo de' Medici: FlorenceGoing abroad with Florence API and studying at Lorenzo D'Medici was the best decision I've ever made. I met amazing new people, saw some of the greatest sights I've ever seen, and learned so much more about my family's heritage. I've made friendships that will last a lifetime. Going abroad has also led me to API ambassadors, a leadership program where I get to talk and inspire others to follow in my footsteps. Going abroad gave me everything I didn't know I needed until I experienced it first ha...
Falling in love with Florence
by: Amy Westlund - United StatesProgram: Lorenzo de' Medici: FlorenceAs a fashion major, it made most sense to do a program where I could get credit for a fashion class. I took a fashion illustration class and I feel as though my skills have definitely improved greatly from the course. I made so many new friendships and I have a new desire to do way more traveling. I had a great time getting to know people in the program and everything went very smoothly!!
The best time of my life
by: Stephanie Koll - United StatesProgram: Lorenzo de' Medici: FlorenceI had always wanted to go to Italy and being able to take a cooking class there is what really sold me. I didn't go to study a specific subject, but I enjoyed the classes I did take, Social Psychology and Current Trends in Italian Cuisine, very much. I had a great experience! I loved my professors and felt very well taken care of by LdM. I learned how to communicate with people and get around a country where I didn't speak the language. I also learned a lot about Italian and European culture.

I knew as I started college that study abroad was an opportunity that many colleges offered, and it had sparked an interest for me from the beginning. Once I learned about all these great programs, I realized it was an opportunity that I did not want to miss out on. I wanted to do something different and make my college experience one I will never forget. Therefore, I knew that studying abroad would give me this amazing experience to meet new people, fall in love with many places, and really grow as a person.
