I definitely recommend this program. Every experience helps my future. I have made friends abroad and can now communicate with them, which has really broadened my perspective.

An AP® course, especially one that demands reading, writing, and analysis, proves that you can handle academic life at an English-speaking university. That matters a lot for international students. These AP® courses also help you stand out as a thinker and communicator.

I feel like this program has improved my responsibility to work by myself without having somebody to police what I’m doing. It’s giving me the opportunity to show my responsibility and work really hard and learn different things that maybe I don’t learn in school.

The U.S. Dual Diploma program lets you organize yourself. You have your tasks. You know the deadline. You can finish it right now or when you can. I like the flexibility it gives you.

I actively participate in clubs and take roles in the leadership groups in Hudson. We always host events for talking and connecting, and we make people feel comfortable.

The Best Buddy Club was like a whole new world for me. I still speak to my first buddy from the last two years. (Originally from Sudan, Lamis currently lives and studies in Türkiye.)

Through the Best Buddy program, I have met Turkish people, Brazilian people, Serbian people. I only had the perspective of Colombia, but now I have a wider perspective of the world.

The whole experience has transformed the way I think and perceive the world. Now I see learning in a much broader way. It’s about understanding people around you, sharing perspectives, and learning a bit more about yourself.
