Great Program, definitely would recommend.

I think I 100% made the right choice with SAI. The staff is friendly, accessible, and always ready to help, no matter how serious or trivial the problem. They are very easy to get in contact with and it is a small enough program that I got to know the staff members personally. From picking you up at the airport to helping you get around your new neighborhood, they are extremely helpful when acclimating to life in a new country. The events they organize are fun and help you meet everyone in the program right from the get go. They have just the right amount of involvement in the students life I think, helping you when you have questions or problems but also giving lots of independence to figure things out on your own. Housing is more than adequate and they try their best to match you with roommates you will get along with (my roommates are my best friends here). Altogether a great program, I wouldn't go any other way.
