Previous students have reflected about their experience in Buenos Aires:

• Quote I think this is an excellent location to understand differences in business law and economy in other areas of the world and also how culture impacts life in business and personal areas.  Quote  
• Quote By being able to experience the culture of another country, I feel more prepared to live a life where I can give back, and be a more well-rounded person. I didn't just learn from the businesses on how to survive an unstable economy, but I truly feel like I learned from the Argentine people how to love life, enjoy the small moments and focus on people. I left Argentina a changed person, and I know that it has prepared me better to enter the real world post graduation.  Quote
