Amazing!

Truly having such an amazing time at JCU this summer! My friends and I have learned so much from everyone here. JCU is such a great base for our travels. Everyone should study abroad here in the Eternal City!

Fantastic

So far I have had a great experience here. They offer so many courses that my home university does not offer. I have been able to deepen my understanding on Italian food, culture, and history which has made my experience great.

Having so much fun!

I really love the wide selection of classes that they have. I’m taking the Italian food culture class that they offer and I’m learning a lot about both food and history. I really enjoy going to the class and I’ve never seen anything like it offered

I’m at my happiest self when I step outside my comfort zone and live more adventurously. I also felt like it would be a total mistake to not study abroad during my four years in college. I was very confident that I wouldn’t regret living in Europe. Also, my father studied in Italy for a year when he was in college and he loved it too.

Having the opportunity to see and experience different parts of the world while also being able to take classes seemed like a dream come true. I really wanted to immerse myself in a foreign culture and become a more well-rounded person. The study abroad program at my university is awesome with so many different programs to choose from, so I knew I could find the perfect one for me.
