I was very pleased with the education and meal programs with AIFS study abroad. They provided me with the full experience in the simplest way possible, making everything comfortable and convenient. The meal plan was absolutely excellent, and allowed me to have more of a cultural experience. The staff at the Richmond school was absolutely amazing and the structure of the classes were very easy to follow, understand, and were very educational about the Italian culture. The way the school did many out of class field trips was also very convenient and helpful. I enjoyed the fact that the program took us to London and Rome before we began classes, allowing us to be acclimated with a new cultural life before we were left on our own for 3 months. I loved the apartment that the program provided me with, the cost of utilities, as well as the landlord. Overall AIFS provided me with amazing amenities for the trip of a lifetime!

The best decision I made was choosing AIFS for study abroad. AIFS makes sure you feel comfortable and safe wherever you go. The directors are always there for any questions you have and want to make your experience unforgettable. I would chose AIFS to study abroad!

The Berlin AIFS Advisors were just lovely, kind, and most of all awesome. They introduced us to things we would never had thought of to do or actually know about. They were very supportive of all of us, basically watching over us as our surrogate family. In my case, they were extremely helpful/supportive with fixing me up with my worksite and getting me through the rough few weeks when my phone was stolen. Overall if it weren't for them, I would not have enjoyed my experience abroad in Berlin, and for that I am extremely thankful that I had the opportunity to have them as our Advisors! 😄👍

Studying with AIFS in St. Petersburg was probably the best decision I could've made for my semester abroad! I got to become a part of a great study abroad cohort, was connected with a lot of resources and opportunities while I was in Russia, and had super friendly and supportive on-site staff. I know that if I were to have studied abroad in Russia without AIFS, my experience would have been hands down less enjoyable!

This was the best decision I ever made, I learned so much, made so many friends, and became so much more confident! I could not recommend this more

AIFS Madrid, Spain offered a top quality school at Nebrija University with classes that were way more interactive than in the states. My housing was an apartment with three other girls, one was in AIFS with me. I liked it better than a homestay; I could cook or go out when I wanted and bring friends over. It's in a great area of the city, close to everything. Madrid is a huge city, even for me just spending 4 months there I didn't see all of Madrid; but it's the place to be for sure because of all the amazing things to ALWAYS be doing. This program was well done and the advisor, Barbara is like a mom. It's a blast and you'll never want to go home!! I loved taking the metro, walking the streets, drinking Sangria, going out to different clubs, traveling in Europe and Spain, and going to Retiro or Temple Debod with groups of friends. You are the one to really be goal setting for speaking Spanish, and it becomes easy as everyone speaks it around you!

AIFS provided me with a chance to truly experience the culture and I would not choose another program had I to do it all over again. The all-inclusive price really helped me in planning ahead and my advisors/directors were there for me in every way before I had even arrived!

AIFS coordinated all the complicated aspects of studying abroad very easily. The staff was very responsive and answered any questions quickly and thoroughly, and the Residence Director on site was a great resource for any issues. AIFS made my experience much less stressful and more enjoyable.
