An unforgettable Dutch experience!
June 27, 2025by: Hannah Khalil - United StatesProgram: Psychology & Neuroscience in EuropeLiving in Maastricht for 6 months proved to be a unique cultural immersive experience. A cozy Dutch university city, the opportunities for unique and local experiences were endless. In the end, I felt as though I truly did live in another country, and have come to call Maastricht my home away from home.
Life changing experience!
June 05, 2025by: Hannah Khalil - United StatesProgram: Psychology & Neuroscience in EuropeMaastricht is a perfect place to call home while you explore Europe! A cozy and approachable Dutch city in the heart of Europe, you will feel comfortable calling it your home after even a short while. The juxtaposition of the beautiful rolling Limburg hills against the medieval fortresses scattered throughout the city, with a large international student population, makes it a wonderful place to study abroad.
The best experience I’ve had!
May 27, 2023by: Alise Maltsev - United StatesProgram: Psychology & Neuroscience in EuropeThe psychology classes I took were an amazing experience. The classes had there easy and hard days/tasks but overall I learned so much. The staff members are there for you and for your success through your time abroad. It’s was nice knowing they are always available no matter the issue. My overall abroad adventure felt like a dream come true. I always wanted to travel since I was little and this program gave me that opportunity! Definitely an unforgettable abroad experience!

As someone who grew up in a very urban environment, when looking at where to study abroad during my junior year of college, I wanted to go somewhere that challenged my lifestyle, which revolved around driving, English, and the bustling nature of Los Angeles.
