University of Evansville

I studied abroad at Harlaxton College in Summer 2017 and the experience was one that previously only existed in my dreams. Living in a castle for 5 weeks, checking sites off my travel bucket list, and experiencing great personal growth were things I could not have found in any other experience. The manor is beautiful and the chance to live and learn there should not be passed up. The staff are very helpful in navigating both local cultural experiences and travel to other countries. I wish that I had just one more week to walk through Harlaxton manor in the English countryside.

Harlaxton provided me with a change to gain life long friendships, experience a level of personal growth I had previously thought impossible, and become a more globally aware individual. I was able to travel throughout Europe through both individual and school-sponsored trips. The staff was very helpful in providing travel tips, giving advice on balancing school and travel, and educating students on British culture. The school provides many opportunities to experience local culture and the Meet-a-Family Program allows students to create a bond with a local family. The four months I spent at Harlaxton provided me with memories and experiences that will last a lifetime.

There are not enough words to describe the experiences I’ve had at Harlaxton. The faculty and staff worked tirelessly to allow me to finish my third physical therapy clinical at a hospital in Peterborough which was a short train ride from Grantham. When I wasn’t working I was traveling both in England with the British faculty as well as abroad with new friends. The University of Evansville is determined to help everyone have this experience abroad and there really is no better place to do so.
