Testimonial from a past student
"The best thing about being abroad was the life enhancing opportunities I experienced. Being able to travel freely around Europe, learning new cultures, new languages, making friends from all around the globe, and seeing famous sites was so amazing. I came back with a whole new outlook on life. Don’t be scared of anything, because no matter what, you'll have the time of your life. Don't let this opportunity pass you by, do it while you can!"
Brooke McAloney, BBA, studied at ESCEM in Fall 2010 and Winter 2011
