Look forward to ejoying the knowledge, experience, and great memories gained during a summer in Salzburg--and to using those gains to fuel future academic and professional success. To provide some impressions of the positive impact the program can have, we offer these excerpts of student feedback. More will be added as we hear back from other past participants.
Language Instruction
First off: the courses. I thought overall it was really good. The teachers were so much fun! They had really good exercises that helped me remember the German [grammar and vocab]. (2002)
The coursework was really helpful. The level was just right, not so ambitious as to be over my head, nor too boringly simple. (2002)
I loved the teachers at the institute. They were wonderful and helpful. (2002)
IFK Salzburg Staff
I found the staff . . . all so friendly, patient and helpful. They gave me lots of tips for my weekends and went out of their way to look up information for me. (2002)
Life in Salzburg
The setting in beautiful Salzburg is a decisive plus. The scenery, the nearby towns . . . the food, bread, pastries, bookshops, the shopping . . . I also enjoyed the company of the international students who participated in the program and was able to make friends. We still communicate by e-mail and cards. (2002)
I had a wonderful experience in Salzburg . . . The only regret that I have is not having stayed longer! (2002)
Overall, I loved Salzburg and that is the reason I'm going back. (2002)
