Why did you choose to study abroad and how did you select your program?
I have a German minor and I am very interested in history, so I chose the program in Berlin since Berlin played an very important role in the 20th century.
What did you learn about yourself?
I feel that I am more brave and I am more willing to talk to other people in German. I also achieved the ability to manage multi-tasks since I had to complete so many things such as school work and paper work at the same time.
What is one of your favorite memories from your program?
My favorite memory is when I took the train to travel from Berlin to a lot of other places in Germany.
What advice do you have for future study abroad students?
Be brave and get ready to be flooded with lots of tasks.
