"I think there is something very valuable in the alternative college experience that SLU-Madrid offers; I was able to find a school that supports my learning both in and out of the classroom. I’ve learned tremendously from SLU’s remarkably intelligent and kind professors, but I’ve learned just as much from the experience of living abroad and being truly independent."
