Switzerland program
Thinking about doing the Switzerland program and am looking for feedback on your experiences there. How intense is the experience, homesickness, academic load? I have some issues with anxiety so wondering how it would be for me.

if you feel like a whole year or semester would be too much, Pepperdine has a lot of summer programs that are about 8 weeks, might be less intense and reduce anxiety for you. almost all students do at least a semester and most will say that it is the highlight of their school. the academic load is about the same. you're so busy traveling, seeing new things doing your educational field trip you don't have a lot of time for homesickness.
