Mikaella
Universidad Federal do ABC, Brazil
I always wanted to participate an international exchange program, especially in Germany, which I've always been a huge fan. But the ISU Frankfurt 2019 was definitively not how I expected it would be, because the program was much better than I thought, beyond any expectation! The extra-activities we had, the friends we've made and the places we've visited made the program really special and amazing. We've learned about Frankfurt, Germany, Europe and so many others countries due to all the amazing people we met from around the world. Frankfurt is a very nice city, with wonderful places to visit, a mix of an old and modern city, really special! The trips for Strasbourg in France and Marburg were also a great experience, lovely cities by the way! The ISU Frankfurt is now a memory that I will always carry with me and so far, one of the best experiences I've ever had!

Looking back on this program, I will always remember and cherish how close I became with some of the students and teachers in the program. I will always be thankful for this opportunity that opened new perspective to my future profession and to challenge new barriers. The most wonderful part of this program is that I gained a diverse world knowledge and it challenged me to continue learn new cultures. This program will be a great resource to add into my resume for future references. Studying in Germany was such a wonderful gift for me and it opened my mind to continue learning of their culture. I look forward to either come back to visit or do part of my Masters in Germany, since their education has great values and quality. Thank you ISU Frankfurt for being part of my history.

ISU Frankfurt 2018 is what brought us all together in this German City. Meeting people from countries all around the world with really different cultural backgrounds, which provided a chance to learn not only in lectures but also with these amazing people. Living, studying and traveling together with the new friends met in the program. ISU Frankfurt also gave me the opportunity to experience, learn and study at the same time. Though the courses could be really intensive, I still got some time to visit some nearby places and attend some activities organized by ISU Frankfurt. The summer in Frankfurt is a unique experience ever. It is definitely worth spending the summer in ISU Frankfurt.

EDHEC Business School, France
The ISU Frankfurt 2018 was an incredible experience. During my 1 month stay, I learnt many valuable things concerning the German & European Banking. The professors were really kind and they taught us about different concepts. However, ISU Frankfurt 2018 was not only about studying. Visiting the ECB, the Deutsche Bundesbank, the trip to Strasbourg and the everyday activities organised by the wonderful team are some of the events I will not forget. Frankfurt is a vivid and wonderful city and I am happy that I spent my summer there with many students from all over the world. I would definitely do it again.

University of Saskatchewan, Canada
My time attending ISU Frankfurt summer program was truly invaluable. I loved how well structured the program was and it helped me to experience so much of Germany in 4 short weeks. Looking back on this trip, I will always remember and cherish how close I became with each of the students in the program. It is because of the people, that I can come back home saying I did not only experience German culture, but also Asian, Italian, French, Spanish, and so many others. I will always be thankful for this opportunity pushing me out of my comfort zone and helping me to gain such diverse world knowledge.

University of Wisconsin Parkside, USA
My summer in Frankfurt was an amazing experience that I will always hold dear to my heart. It being my first time out of the country was extremely nerve-racking, but the ISU team made sure I felt safe, comfortable, and were there to answer all my questions. I enjoyed wandering around Frankfurt trying traditional German foods, shopping, and exploring the beautiful city. The ISU trip was also fun because we got to go on excursions to other cities like Berlin, Marburg, and Strasbourg. Since returning home I feel as though the ISU program has helped increase my cultural awareness, given me insight on European Banking and German culture, and has left me with memories to last a lifetime.

University of Zagreb, Croatia
Such a great experience ISU Frankfurt was. Studying while traveling is a great thing to do. Every day I learned many new things about Finance and how German and EU Banking System works. Living and breathing every day with people from around the world was remarkable. Everyday I could experience another culture as I live in everyday German culture as well. We visited a lot of different cities and buildings which are important for Germany. Let's not forget beautiful Frankfurt. With a fascinating skyline, great universities and fast-moving life I can totally imagine myself living, working or studying there again!

University of Western Australia, Australia
Taking part in ISU Frankfurt was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made – it allowed me to experience Germany in a unique way that has shaped my appreciation for the world around me. The course catered to many different skill levels and interests and so there was something on offer for everyone, and our time spent in the classroom was complemented perfectly by the numerous tours and excursions we took part in throughout the program. I never thought that travelling to Germany would allow me to experience so many different cultures from all around the world, but I feel so fortunate that I was able to do so, while also making lifelong friends and amazing memories.
