Hello, my name is Lupe and I'm an Art (Graphic Design) major at 绿帽换妻.  I studied in Germany in Spring 2023 at Hochschule der Median (Stuttgart Media University) through

My favorite memory is: So many memories, so little time. The new friends I’ve made with the program and in Germany are people I’m excited to revisit and catch up. Another favorite memory is school related, the design program at HdM was amazing and learned so much about package and color theory. It was such a wonderful experience. 

My best advice is:  Do It!!! This is an experience of a life time. The connections you make and the new friends you meet are something you will have for life. It’s definitely scary thinking about being on your own in a new country across the world but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be a natural.

Hi everyone! My name is Anaiyah and I graduated from 绿帽换妻 with a B.A. in Psychology with a minor in Communication. I studied abroad in Spring Semester 2022 through CSU International Programs.
My favorite memories are: Getting the opportunity to see how colleges operate outside of the country, exploring new cities and ways of life, meeting new people, trying new foods, and allowing myself to always go outside of my comfort zone. This was such a cherished time in my life and everything that I experienced abroad, I wouldn’t change for the world.
My best advice is: This is a fresh start. Be who you want to be, create lifelong relationships, make a bucket list of the many things you want to do within your time there, stay present, and always allow yourself to be open minded to new opportunities and experiences that may come your way. You saying yes to going abroad was just the first step of saying yes to such a life changing experience.
