I loved so much about my experience here. There were so many wonderful opportunities to visit cool places, and tons of events to go to. The classes were very interesting and all of the professors and staff are lovely. I had so much fun seeing and trying all the new things.

I had an incredible experience with this study abroad program and would highly recommend it to anyone considering going abroad. From start to finish, everything was well organized, and I felt supported every step of the way. The program made it easy to adjust to living in a new country, and the staff were always available to help with any questions or concerns. One of the best parts of the experience was the opportunity to fully immerse myself in a new culture. I was able to explore the city, try amazing local food, and meet people from all over the world. The program also did a great job of balancing independence with support, giving me the freedom to grow while still providing helpful resources. Academically, the courses were engaging and offered a unique perspective that I wouldn’t have gotten at my home university. I learned so much both inside and outside of the classroom. Overall, this program exceeded all of my expectations. It helped me grow personally, academically, and culturally, and it’s truly an experience I will never forget. I would absolutely give it 10 stars and encourage others to take advantage of this opportunity!

Best semester!!

Umbra made sure to make the student feel welcomed and at home right away. The staff is always available if you need help. They’re always planning different activities to bring the students together which is great. They’re always giving you recommendations for places to go to so you don’t feel lost. Overall I’m very happy that I chose Umbra and wouldn’t want to have it any other way.
