Since high school, I have wanted to study a semester abroad. I chose the United States because it offered many exciting opportunities for my bachelor’s degree. I specifically picked Pace University because I wanted to experience New York City’s infectious energy first-hand. The diverse communities and endless opportunities for personal growth made my semester abroad truly transformative. I met many other international students from all over the world, and we bonded quickly over this unique experience, even visited each other in our home countries after the semester.

What I loved about Pace University was its location- right at the foot of Brooklyn Bridge.They also provided amazing opportunities for students to explore New York. Through Pace, I was able to get seats to NBA and Yankees games, and even take a private tour of the UN building. Thanks to the many different opportunities Pace offered, I was able to fully immerse myself and experience the New Yorker lifestyle.

During my time abroad, I went on spring break in Miami Beach and visited many other cities. I also explored all the iconic landmarks like Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, and Broadway.

Studying a semester abroad in New York City was an incredible journey that exceeded all my expectations. From the busy streets of Manhattan to the serene parks of Brooklyn, every corner of this vibrant city offered a unique experience.
