What Students Say About the NYC Program

"This has been an incredible experience. The class structure was mature, the internship gave me an opportunity to really be involved in an organization, and the independent project was great preparation for a thesis. Don't change a thing!"

"I just wanted to thank you again for giving me wonderful opportunities; terrific connections keep cropping up as a result of the program and my internship."

"My experience with the NYC program was probably the single best learning experience I had in my college career. I feel I really got a taste of what New York has to offer."

"Besides being able to learn about the city during our free time, the trips we took were a lot of fun. In addition, we learned to live with people that were different from ourselves and learned how to survive on our own."

"Dear Hamilton College, I just want to say thank you for giving me this opportunity. It has changed my life forever."

"I thought that I really gained an understanding of globalization through the program. The coursework, internship, and overall experience had a real global reach."

"The field trips, specifically the West Indian Parade and the Tenement Museum, definitely provided me with a good understanding of globalization."

"It is impossible not to gain an understanding of globalization while living in NYC."

"Beautiful apartment. I don't know if I'll ever be able to afford something quite this nice, but it was fun while it lasted."
