AIFS Abroad Recensioni 694

I had a great time during the trip to Como. I loved the boat ride as I feel I got a real look at the whole area. Antonella and Amanda were great in so many ways. You could tell they really wanted us to have a great time. They created such a beautiful experience as we had the boat ride and lunch together. In addition we also got the rest of the day to be independent from the program and explore the town. I appreciated their support at the first half of the day and they trust in us for the majority of it. It is great to be part of an experience that really understands we are adults. It was a lovely day!

My study abroad experience in Sevilla, Spain with AIFS was wholeheartedly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure and I couldn't have gotten luckier with the location I chose. Not only was the city itself absolutely marvelous, but each and every person I met while I was there made the experience that much better. However, the part of the journey that allowed me to have the memories that I did was the structure provided to us by AIFS and the on-site team in Sevilla. Without their help assimilating into the city, succeeding in our classes, and facilitating our excursions, my experience would've been much more difficult and certainly less memorable. My choice of Sevilla was made because of the excursions AIFS provided and the different classes they offered on their website, and I can only imagine how it would've turned out otherwise. I am forever grateful to AIFS for giving me this opportunity and the directors in Sevilla for making it as fun as possible, and for anyone considering studying abroad in Spain, I highly recommend Sevilla.

AIFS offered many travel exclusions within their program that were very fun and reduced the stress of planning traveling within our host country of Ireland! The program director was not only a very good resource but also someone to help guide us and make us feel safe throughout entire study abroad experience! Overall, would highly recommend this program!

Amanda and Antonella were very welcoming even before arriving to Milan and made sure that we had everything we needed at all times, no matter if it was regarding our internship or living accommodations. They were very responsive and answered all questions I had, even if they didn’t know the answer in the moment, they would get back to me when they did have one.

When I first moved to Milan, I had already had experiences with moving abroad but this was my first time dealing with many things back home and abroad. I went through so many external challenges in the city but Amanda and Antonella were really there to help! They actually care about your well being and as long as you show you care and are hard working they’re willing to do anything for you!

I would recommend this to everyone. GE truly paired me with the best roommates and employer. I learned so much from Anja while being support by Amanda and Antonella. This was a safe and encouraging space to grow and learn this summer.

This was an amazing program I wish I could experience all over again. I am so grateful for how accommodating Amanda and Antonella were before and during our arrival. I could not have asked for a better experience, internship, and community that was created through this program. I would recommend it to anyone!

Life changing! Learned so much about myself and different cultures

Meeting new people, having the freedom to do what I wanted to to. The people that helped us (Antonella and Amanda).

Everything was great no complaints besides maybe the heat !

The events were well organized and very fun. Everything was set up very well.

I had a really great time overall! I liked all the activities we were able to do, the included meal plan, the housing and the way that the program was structured. The restaurants part of the meal plan were all really great and I enjoyed all of them, really great authentic Italian food. The day trips/excursions and other tours and activities through the program were all well planned and I found were really good for having some basis on the history of Italy. While this trip was completely different than what I am used to, it was really great to learn about a different way of living and experience another culture.

Overall I had a great experience with the study abroad I enjoyed all the trips and experiences that were given to me along with the housing was impeccable and I couldn’t of asked for a better temporary home as well as I felt safe and that I was getting my moneys worth through the entire program

This was a truly amazing experience! From the get-go the staff is very attentive and works with you to ensure you get placed in an internship in the destination of your choice. I personally wanted an internship in the psychology field in Florence, Italy and although it was a bit tricky because of the language barrier, the team at AIFS Global worked hard to ensure I secured a position in my field. They also provided us with two weeks of language classes prior to the start of our internships to allow us to feel better prepared for the immersion. They also offered us several excursions within Florence such as a tour of Palazzo Vecchio and a boat ride along the Arno River, as well as in nearby cities such as a wine tour in Chianti, for no additional cost. The housing was great and was situated in a clean and safe area close to the main area of the city. The housing coordinator was also very attentive and made sure any and all issues were resolved in a very timely manner. All in all, I would definitely recommend this program to anyone who is looking for a safe way to travel while building a resume and make friends along the way.

The company did everything well, I had the biggest issue with my job selection process and it wasn’t even that bad. They helped me as much as they could and never seemed too busy to talk with us about whatever we needed.

I think being outside of my comfort zone was the best part of this experience. This is what allowed me to grow, learn, and be individual. I absolutely adored the company I worked for and the team that makes the behind the scenes happen. I felt comfortable, was able to ask questions freely and get feed back that allowed me to learn about this industry.

I had a great experience this summer in Milan. From my internship, the friendships I made, and the advisors we had, everything was perfect. I learned so much about myself this summer through living on my own in a foreign country. It got hard at times when I was home sick but it was super easy to book a trip and get out of the funk. I learned a lot during my internship that I will be able to apply to other jobs back in America. Overall my favorite part of this experience is the relationships I made with those around me!

AIFS did an amazing job of connecting the students, keeping us informed, and being ready to help with whatever bumps in the road were faced. I made so many new friends during this experience thanks to the efforts that this program went through to helps us meet one another and stay connected throughout the internship. In addition, the internship placements are tailored to you and what you’re looking for- and it was the best job experience I have ever had. I feel so much better prepared to enter the workforce and use everything that I learned and improved on during this experience. Moving abroad is so exciting but can also be scary! AIFS did a perfect job of preparing us months before our departure, and has on-site staff to help with any problem that you could face. They made the entire experience as easy as possible so that I could focus on my internship, and discovering the world with my new friends! :)
