Dear Prospective Abbey Students,

I am currently enrolled in The Abbey Program in Pontlevoy, France and it has been something I will cherish and always remember. Coming into the program in its inaugural semester I was nervous about many things. But it quickly became evident that my semester here would be the most enjoyable and influential one of my life.

the courses, taught by some of America's top professors, being immersed in a new culture, the flexibility for travel and the overall atmosphere here at The Abbey are just a few of the great things that I have experienced in the past two months. Also, the collection of faculty and students here are truly as close to a family as I have seen, except for the Evans House of course.

I challenge everyone to seriously consider The Abbey Program if they are interested in studying abroad. Not only has it been the best two months of my life so far but it will absolutely be a massive addition to my resume, since international experiences are one of the most sought after characteristics that employers are looking for in young business hopefully straight out of college.

Sincerely,

Eric Covert
Michigan State University Evans Scholar
