What our former students say
about us:
"The
study abroad experience itself is life changing. I truly believe
in the quote: "We view the world not as it is, but as we are".
Once you have been to another country and have experienced their
culture you are able to correct many stereotypes that you have
perceived prior to the trip."

"I
signed up for study abroad because I wanted to experience new
places and new people. I wanted to stop living a life were I only
knew what was going on in my country and paid no attention to
the rest of the world. Study abroad has changed my life. I now
know exactly who I am and what I can handle. The good times that
I had will last a lifetime. I learned alot and saw alot and I
no longer feel as if I don't know what is going on in the world.
I think this was probably the best experience of my life. I would
go abroad through Eastern again in a second."

"It
was amazing to me how quickly I became more independent and responsible
on this trip. I learned a great deal about respecting other cultures
and those around me. I learned more during those short 6 weeks than
I have during 2 years of college, about myself, cultures with a
rich history, and how societies are shaped by their history. I was
surprised at my own abilities!
Don't be afraid to take this step and try something non-traditional.
You won't experience anything like this that will make you more
proud of accomplishing something so unique, educational and worthwhile."

Hanka,
University of Minnesota, Twin Cities
"You
learn so much from the classes and the whole experience. You come
back very open and wanting to experience bigger and better things."

Stewart,
Western Michigan University
"ECHT
is a wonderful experience which helps you grow as an individual
and learn about others. I learned a great deal about the arts and
history and will continue my studies."
Meridith
Bleecker,
University of the Pacific, Stockton CA
"ECHT
provides an opportunity to learn about and experience history and
culture in a way that no text book could ever do."
Dean
Stevens,
Eastern Michigan University
"I'm
so glad I got the courage to go ahead and go on this trip. It was
an eye-opening experience that changed my view of the world."
