STUDENT TESTIMONIALS:

"My summer abroad with SPI was simply amazing. I met so many people from all over the world that I still keep in contact with! The program was well rounded with just enough free time to really feel like we lived in the city, not just visiting it. To top it off, my college already awarded me 3 hours of credit for the classes we did!"



"I had so much fun this summer! The SPI directors and local staff helped us really experience the local culture from an insider's perspective and not as a tourist. I can't wait to go back!"



"The directors were fantastic! They really went the extra mile to make sure that we got the most out of our time abroad. We had just enough freedom and support which made the experience a perfect mix of fun and serious learning."



PARENT TESTIMONIALS:

"The SPI program went above and beyond our expectations on all levels. IT WAS PERFECT! The orientation information and preparation was phenomenal. I felt very comfortable with everything and SPI was always available, always good at returning calls, and very professional."



"She really had a blast...learning from the culture, the wonderful family, and especially the language. Thank you so much for helping expand her horizons! She will definitely be studying abroad in college as well. I will continue to spread the word about how memorable and safe her experience was with SPI."



“It’s the gift that keeps on giving. Sending her to Italy last summer was the best thing we could have done to help prepare for her for her first year in college! She called home only a few times because she was so busy indulging in all the exceptional excursions and courses SPI offered. She saw the world in a way we could never show her here in the states.”
