Best Semester of My College Career

To give perspective of the learning experiences IAU offered to me, there was such a richness to each of my courses that I found myself always looking forward to what the next class would bring. Class size was small, so I always felt that the teacher cared about each individual student's progress.
As far as cultural immersion, I would say that you got what you put into it. It is always the student's choice to go out and meet new French people, and speak French whenever possible with the locals. And for me...I seized any opportunity I could get and learned a lot in return. I will never forget my time in Aix and everything my experiences abroad gave me.
