Review
Costa Rica is a wonderful country for the student of sustainable development and this program takes good advantage of this. Classes were not as challenging as my classes in the US but the subject matter was very engaging, particularly in the Rural and Urban Development class and the Sustainable Tourism class. The homestay experience was fantastic and the program staff are extremely helpful. San Jose is very accesible and living there allows you to travel all over the country. In order to make the most of the language aspect you MUST sign up for the lit of film class in Spanish--even if you don't feel very confident about your Spanish.
