Best Summer

I was so blessed with the opportunity to travel abroad to five European countries with Forum-Nexus. It was the best decision I have ever made. Forum-Nexus gave me more than enough. This is the best program that lets you take useful classes, visit awesome companies and organization, and travel. One month sounds too short, but you have a plenty of time to do whatever you want to. I got to meet so many friends from different places and different backgrounds. This one month was incredibly wonderful. I learned a lot, enjoyed a lot, ate a lot, walked a lot, and laughed a lot. The professors are knowledgeable and the staffs are friendly and super helpful. I am so thankful to be a part of member of this awesome program. I will never forget this good memories, and it will be the best time in my entire life. I recommend you to sign up for Forum-Nexus right now!

The most fun month of my life!

I will never forget this trip! I saw things that I'd only seen in textbooks and made lifelong friends from all over the world! I couldn't have asked for more! :) I made so many memories from this trip: biking in Amsterdam, taking in the Dutch countryside, seeing priceless art in Paris, paragliding in Chamonix, Skating around Milan at night, taking a gondola in Venice, exploring tiny seaside terraces in Santorini, exploring medieval ruins in Rhodes and so many more. In addition the structure of the classes is amazing. All of them are very well thought out with certain assignments an activities that coincide with the various cities. For example, you may have a class in the world famous Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam! Also the instructors do a great jo of teaching while also enabling you to be able to go out and see the magnificent cities that you're in! If you go on this trip you will leave the trip with a new outlook on so many aspects of life and with lifelong connections/experiences that you'll take with you everywhere.

What would you improve about this program?
More advice on which restaurants, stores, etc. in cities are less expensive.

Once in a lifetime opportunity!

Forum-Nexus provided me with the perfect opportunity to study abroad while also gaining experience within an internship. I gained knowledge within the marketing industry in and outside of class. If you are looking to grow within an internship or if you are even looking to take classes abroad Forum-Nexus is the ideal program. With so many classes to choose from every student can find at least one that will benefit their studies. I also got to travel Europe with my best friend while we were focusing on completely different studies. It was so amazing and we had so much fun traveling together. We made new friends, experienced new places, and ate new foods. Not many college students get to explore all these cities in Europe in just one short month. I can honestly say I would choose Forum-Nexus and all the experiences I got all over again.

What would you improve about this program?
There is not much that I can say Forum-Nexus needs to improve on. If I had to choose something I would say that they should help students out more with how they are spending their money. Just maybe talking to them a bit more about managing their finances while traveling.

Life Changing Experience

Attending Forum-Nexus this past summer was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I knew that it was going to be an incredible experience, but it exceeded my expectations in every way. From the food, classes, and constant adventures it was all amazing. The program is unique because it allows you to experience many different countries and cultures in a short period of time. I learned so much while abroad and made life-long friends!

If you're scared, just do it!

This is a great way to spend your summer! You will get to visit many countries and cities with some of the best people you will ever meet. You'll be exposed to a diverse group of people that will make your experience one to rememberer. The program is very flexible with amazing professors and staff that guide you every step of the way.
When I came back home after the summer many people asked me how it went. All I could say was "unforgettable". Forum-Nexus is a great way to get out of your comfort zone and have a summer you can look back on forever.

FN is a life-changing experience.

FN is the best way to improve your network. Here you can find
people with very different points of view, make new friends, new business partners and improve your business knowledge. Also, people from different cultures find out new information about other cultures. The program is a “Deep Dive” into different world cultures. Most of all I was impressed by different
activities during the sessions: group work, project work, where you can share your opinions with the
partners, agree or disagree on some points and come to the common conclusions. That was the most
difficult point in fact. People differ much in their views and stand their ground. But as a result of this
collaboration and communication we found lots of common ideas and were pleased to present them to
the public. The most challenging task of all was the task of making a presentation to the audience where
the group had not only to discuss the ideas and issues but implement them in practice, how it would work
in reality. In general, the program was exciting! I miss all the participants and organizers. If I had a chance to be
engaged in it one more time I would definitely use it and be the part of FN!!!!!!!

Forum Nexus Changed my Life

Quite honestly I have no words for how amazing this program is. Before Forum Nexus I had never been out of the country. Being from Chicago, big cities never bothered me and I consider myself a pretty cultured person, being as there are people from all over that reside in the windy city. Being in a foreign country has nothing on the experiences I have had here in the states. The places we went, the people we met , the food we ate, everything from start to finish was something I could only dream about until finding Forum Nexus. The staff was so welcoming and genuine and I learned so much from them all both inside and outside of the classroom. There is not enough time in the day to tell you haw grateful I am to have gotten to experience a trip so magical, while still learning and growing academically. I am a changed person because of the opportunity Forum Nexus gave me and I would 100% recommend this program to anyone who asks. Shouting THIS IS FORUM NEXUS, all the way from Ohio!!!!!

What would you improve about this program?
This trip is a little pricey, but for what we get to do and see, the money is well worth it!!

An Incredible Opportunity for Learning and Experiencing Culture

Participating in Forum-Nexus over the summer was the best decision of my life - I visited so many incredible places and made life-long friends in the short span of five weeks. I would recommend this program to any student who wants to study abroad, but does not wish to be tied down to one specific city. One of the most unique aspects about Forum-Nexus is what they call Professional Visits. These are personal visits to places such as the UN-Geneva, CERN, UniCredit Bank, and many others. The visits are hosted by a professional within the organization, and it is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to see these places and see how they work. My favorite memory from Forum-Nexus was going to the island of Santorini, which is off the coast of Greece. I had the best day of my life there, and I owe it to Forum-Nexus being accommodating to weekend trips that are planned by students! While in Santorini, we booked a boat that brought us to a black sand beach, allowed us to swim in a semi-active volcano where sulfur was still rising, eat a traditional Greek dinner on the water, and see the sunset with several other boats. This night was topped off with walking up 300 steps to find the bus, but at least some fireworks started going off during the climb!
Honestly, do yourself a favor and sign up for this study abroad program. If you have any questions about it or studying abroad in general, feel free to email me at cjperl@gmail.com
Also all attached photos were taken by me, on the trip.

What would you improve about this program?
The only suggestion I would have would be for a few more science based courses, but the classes I took were phenomenal since the professors have such a vast experience.
