I had the time of my life!

This study abroad program is extremely organized and willing to work with you. I felt really safe throughout my trip and the location of our apartment was absolutely perfect. I could hike Arthur's seat but also visit New Town all within 10 minutes away from my apartment. The city itself is absolutely magical, and there is so much to do. I recommend going in the summer because Scotland weather is divine during June and July. The internship was great, I was able to work with a professor who was really conducive to my interests and passions. I would highly recommend this program. If you have any specific questions, dm me at nataliemalluru on Instagram!

Had a great time in Scotland thanks to Adelante. The internship was interesting and in line with my goals. I worked on literature reviews and hypothesis formulations with a nice professor. The weekends were full of adventures and lots of exposure to the rich Scottish culture.

An incredible experience!

I had such an amazing time here and I am so sad that it is time to leave! The relationships I made at Apex vets as well as the other students through Adelante have all been wonderful and I am so happy with my placement! I know some of the others were unhappy with their placements but I think it really depends on the location for each person as practices run very differently!
