What was one of your favorite classes? My favorite class was my Business of Sports in Europe class. I am involved with sports here on campus and it was an interesting combination of my involvement with the team as well as my finance major concentration.
What did you like about your program/university? I felt like it was very unrestrictive and gave the students a lot of freedom to explore and get the most out of the time we had in Europe. I never felt too overwhelmed by school work or anything of that nature.
What advice would you give to the 2024 abroad students? Make an effort to meet the students from the other schools early on in the program and don't plan trips with just the people from your school. Planning ahead for some trips is good, but it is good to wait and see you end up being friends with before planning and committing to trips to other cities.
