FU-BEST 2025 Semester

My semester abroad with FU-BEST was one I will never forget, and it far exceeded my expectations I had when choosing to study abroad in Germany. The courses and professors I had always brought a unique, insightful perspective into the topics we were learning about. I could immediately tell every professor I had offered a nuanced perspective on what they were teaching and were also extremely passionate on every topic. The FU-BEST staff provided incredibly helpful support and resources throughout the semester and were always more than open to answer any questions or concerns I had. Most importantly, the friends I made in this program are ones I will cherish the rest of my life, and the memories I made in this program were truly unparalleled. Within the first day of starting the program, I met so many wonderful people that I continued to have close friendships with throughout the semester, and I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to meet such an amazing group. Together, we made the most out of time in Berlin by going on several trips together across Germany and Europe, as well as took in all the sights and culture of Berlin (whether that was by going to different restaurants in Berlin, exploring the nightlife scene, or seeing all the museums and Christmas markets!) I strongly recommend this program to anyone interested in studying abroad in Germany, there isn't anything I would change about my experience there.
