Have any of you done it? Was it worth it? My school has a London program in the fall and a Spain program in the spring. I'd like to go to Spain, but I'm not sure if it would be worth it, especially since I don't speak spanish.

I'm going to Berlin next fall. Everyone I know who has gone abroad absolutely loves it, plus everyone says the one thing to get out of the college experience is to go abroad.

If i were I'd go to Spain. I'm sure your school has programs in Spain that are in English.

I've heard nothing but good things about it.

I'm spending a semester in Canada soon, on the recommendation of every other person who's ever done similar (regardless of country) - like El Grapadora said, it's one thing that needs to be done in some way, shape or form. And Spain is quite accommodating with English - not sure about the story in colleges but I have my doubts that you'd be completely screwed linguistically.

I spent a semester in India -- probably the best decision I made in my whole life. I would like to do another study abroad, but I would not be able to graduate in another year if I did so.

Two friends went to California as part of an exchange program, for a year to study. They said it was defiantly worth it, especially since it all counted towards their degree back here.
