CYA Spring 2023: Academically and Culturally Immersive

CYA emphasizes the integration of academic and cultural learning—many of my courses were held at the site of ancient ruins, cultural centers, and museums. This immersive environment lends itself to language acquisition and cultural understanding; it was truly a highlight of the program. CYA professors and staff were positive and engaging throughout the entire semester, as were the other students. Additionally, the field study component of CYA enabled me to gain exposure to the broader Greece region and appreciate the country’s diversity of natural beauty.
