FSU study abroad programs

<p>I'm interested in FSU, and would be a history major (with a possible double major in Classical Archaeology). I was wondering if anyone here had any experiences with the study abroad programs in Ireland and/or the Italian dig site in Tuscany. I can't really find much more information than what's on their (not extremely descriptive) website. Would anyone recommend either of these study abroad programs? Or any other, for that matter?</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>My daughter just graduated from FSU. She did not do the dig in Tuscany, but she did do a summer there. The FSU Internation Studies program is wonderful and very organized. They have an office and classrooms in Florence, and it is an experience you will remember forever.</p>

<p>DD is doing the first 5 semesters abroad with FSU. She is in China right now and loves every second of it. Program in Florence, Italy is amazing but I don’t know about the dig site.</p>

<p>Any knowledge of a semester in Panama? Anybody?</p>

<p>I have several friends studying in Panama. And this is what I know</p>

<p>-Academics (from what I’ve heard from friends): it’s not that they’re easy, but the learning environment is quite different, in a positive way. In fact, many students (from Panama) that attend other colleges in the states go here during summer and they have very good feedback on the classes.</p>

<p>-They just moved. Before, they were in old buildings…now they’re relocated in a similar place but the structure is quite nice. Actually, I visited recently and it looks great. Plus the new location is in an area where many international NGO’s, schools and embassies are established. So it’s a different environment than the regular Panama, secluded you might say.
Living in Panama is quite cheap, and very comfy to move around (nothing is usually more that 30mins away).</p>

<p>Just curious have many students done the SAS Semester at Sea and what is your feedback.
