Cara M, France Program
For any students who are unsure about pursuing an immersion program, I can only recommend giving it a try. My trip to France with Xperitas brought a new dimension to a language and culture I hadn't experienced firsthand. Exploring new places and cultures abroad has given me some of my best memories and best friends, and has certainly played a role in shaping my goals for the future.
Lily H, Germany Program
I ended up coming out of the trip with more conversational skills, which I think I lacked a little bit beforehand, which is one of those things you can only acquire once you go to a country and speak with native speakers.
Madisen B, France Program
The France trip provided me with the experience I needed to decide what path to take in my life.
Madisen Bell, the Xperitas Alumni Scholarship winner for the 2020 program year is currently a first-year student studying to be a French language teacher at the University of Nebraska Lincoln. She traveled to France with her classmates and her teacher, Madame Tangen, in spring 2019. It was a life changing experience for Madisen who said in her essay, “The France trip provided me with the experience I needed to decide what path to take in my life.”
