Best way to spend your summer
by: Kaylee RiceProgram: Ecology Conservation Program in Scotland - Adelante AbroadAdelante's study abroad program exceeded my expectations, I received equal levels of cultural experiences and academic knowledge. The program's lecturers were beyond knowledgable about their respective subjects and wanted us to have the best time possible. This is the easiest and funnest way to earn some college credit whilst you are a in another country.

One in particular is a bit intense, but they are trying to give you the hands on activity you wouldn't get som...

From the Lowlands to the Highlands, Scotland has some of the most magnificent scenery I have ever seen. This trip ha...
