Student Testimonial
Firstly, Global Study Abroad has not only provided me with very good advices, they have been friendly and very helpful in helping me with any of my queries. Global Study Abroad seeks to understand my needs and provided me with great care when I first arrived in the USA. They even checks up on my progress once in a while and kept in contact with the students they have assisted in order to provide further help if needed. Global Study Abroad has also been very detailed, going through the process with me step by step. Overall, my first overseas study experience has been great because of Global Study Abroad, and I will highly recommend them to any students interested to study in De Anza College or anywhere else in the world.
