Why The Education Abroad Network?

"Personally, I thought orientation was a blast.  In one week I experienced a lifetime of memories. From the historical sites to the food, I will always remember that week we spent in Beijing.  It also was really helpful to be able to experience that with everyone else that I would be living with for the semester; in fact without it we wouldn't have felt nearly as comfortable with each other.  Additionally, the information that we were given at orientation has proven to be very useful in getting acclimated to everyday China.  I really had no complaints, as the personnel, accommodations, and itinerary were all top notch.  Definitely has to be a "must-do" for anyone coming to China with EAN!"

"I loved the orientation. It was a great opportunity to not only get to know the country of China, but (also) the other members of the program as well. The Great Wall excursion was definitely the highlight of the trip, but the stops at the Forbidden City, the Ming Tombs, and the Olympic stadiums were also completely unforgettable."

"The orientation alone is worth studying abroad via the Education Abroad Network.  Between hiking the Great Wall at sunrise to enjoying Peking duck in the Hutongs, the five days spent in Beijing I will remember for a lifetime.  We had a great guide who shared information not only on Chinese history, but customs and traditions as well.  He had a wealth of knowledge and was to answer any questions we had about Chinese history and culture."
