Testimonials
"ARANAS is an amazing opportunity to learn and grow academically and personally. The program is a great way to advance and improve Arabic skills as well as gain exposure to a new culture. Thanks to the professors who were very helpful both inside and outside class as are the Teacher Assistants and the Program Assistants. I enjoyed all the trips through which I met different people that brought me new experiences."

"I was able to learn Arabic & a North African Studies topic from three of the most helpful yet entertaining professors I've ever had, all because of the ARANAS program. I visited some of the most amazing sites I've ever seen, ate some of the best food I've ever had, and most importantly - I met some of the most beautiful people, who I've become such good friends with in this short span of time. ARANAS is a great program - you won't regret it!! (and my Arabic has improved immensely!)"

"The ARANAS program was a fantastic experience. I learned so much more than I would have ever imagined. I think about it every day, and I am looking for ways to come back as soon as possible!"

"My experience in Morocco as part of the ARANAS program can be summarized in one word: unexpected. I did not expect to meet such interesting, magnetic, and kind people on the program, nor did I expect to learn so much in such a short time. I would recommend and have been recommending the program to anyone interested in studying abroad, and to go in not expecting anything specific to be as surprised and open as I was in my experience."
