My time in Milan was unforgettable!

by: Dara Abimbola - United KingdomProgram: IES Abroad Milan – Italy Today

My time in Milan was unforgettable, thanks largely to the experiences I sought out on my own. Being proactive truly brings out the best in the program. Exploring Italy's wineries, cities, and vibrant culture was incredible, giving me the chance to experience Italian life firsthand. Attending three operas for free and enjoying countless live classical music shows enriched my appreciation of the arts. Each trip, performance, and discovery made my time in Italy an experience of a lifetime, and I’m ...

Benvenuto a Milano!

I really enjoyed my experience with IES Milan. While sometimes I wished the program had more resources (i.e. a greater variety of more challenging courses), I consistently found the professors and admin to be kind and welcoming—especially because I always spoke to them in Italian. Two things I really valued which were somewhat unique to my program: 1) getting an internship, which took a fair amount of my time but was well worth it, especially because I insisted on getting an internship which wou...

These initiatives gave us a ch...

Ryan Barner

Participated in 2013

Alumni

I wanted to travel the world, get a break from Los Angeles, a place I was born and raised all my life. I wanted to become more independent and get a break from the rigor of my regular University's courses.

Emma Morgan - 2015 Program Participant

Participated in 2015

Alumni

Since the beginning of high school, I had always wanted to travel somewhere outside of the United States (not including Canada, since it's so close to where I live anyway). My high school was small and did not allow for many trips outside of the country. I made it my goal that I would study abroad somewhere during my time in college, because if I didn't do it now I was worried I would never get another time as perfect as now to go abroad.

Alumni

I always enjoyed traveling and meeting people that were different from myself. Before I knew where I was going to college, I knew that I would be going abroad at some point during my time there.
