"Best Experience I Could've Asked For!"
I learned how to be independent and how to go out of my comfort zone. I did things I never thought I would, whether it be traveling solo in a foreign country or making friends with people from all over the world. So glad I did this program!
- Hannah Cook, Wisconsin Lutheran College
"Semester on the Italian Coast was incredible"
I learned a lot from my experience abroad! Ever since I was young, I've always wanted to study abroad. Travelling throughout Italy I've met so many unique people, including a musician travelling throughout Europe promoting his music, a writer from Naples, and a couple from Australia travelling the world. I've also had the opportunity to volunteer in Naples with Refugees from Pakistan and Nigeria with my International Politics class here. Sant'Anna is a great environment for someone who would like a small, community environment. I became very independent this semester, as well as more confident within myself.
- Catherine Mills, Colorado Christian University
"Home Sweet (Home) Sorrento!"
"Wow! Italy is full of surprises. Today during the tour at Sant'Anna, I saw the most beautiful views of the Amalfi Coast. It does not matter how many times I see it, the beauty of it never gets old."
- Rachael White, Western New England University
