"After high school, I was not completely sure what I wanted to do. I did know I wanted to travel to Europe - Spain in particular. I did a little research and found Schiller International University Madrid. I liked the business program and the fact that they had students from all over the world.

Once I was there, I enjoyed the small class sizes and professors with real-world experience. The opportunity to discuss class subjects with students from different cultures enables you to see things from another perspective.

Galina Schneider is from Estonia. She is earning her Bachelor of Business Administration in International Business degree through Schiller International University Online.

"To complete my study towards my BA in International Business, I chose Schiller International University Online last January. I feel confident that it is ideal for me and my busy life. I work full-time as a commercial employee, and it is great that I can learn something new in my free time and apply it in my business routine day by day. Furthermore, I have my family with two little children and am just unable to attend courses at any of available campuses even on evening basis.

The Schiller International University distance learning program is a fantastic opportunity because of its 24 hours a day, 7 days a week time flexibility, keen, skillful, and always helpful instructors, greatly organized courses materials, and online library resources."

Veresa Matakaruru Dagaga is studying International Relations and Diplomacy at the Largo, Florida campus. His hometown is Savusavu in the Fiji islands.

"I applied to many other universities and colleges and even was accepted to some. I chose Schiller International University to complete my studies. First of all, with five campuses in five countries, I knew it would be my best chance to study and travel at the same time.

Now that I am here, I have no regrets about coming. I have made friends with people from so many different countries. It is great to be around such a beautiful bunch of people, especially when we have to learn about languages and culture. As an International Relations and Diplomacy major, this is just the right place for me, because the field of work I am studying towards requires interacting and learning other peoples' languages. This experience will surely prepare me for the future. Schiller International University is the best place to study if you are thinking of working in a global environment."

Chevonne Cottle-Forde is from Barbados in the Caribbean. She is currently studying at Schiller International University's Largo, Florida campus in hopes of earning a successful career in the tourism industry.

"Studying at Schiller International University thus far has been an excellent experience, mainly due to its family-type setting and its cultural diversity. Before enrolling in classes at Schiller International University, I visited the campus and immediately I was drawn to the small roll of students and the courteous staff. The small student population allows for greater one-on-one attention and communication between students and instructors, and encourages greater discussion and participation in the classroom. The friendliness of the staff also helps to promote a more comfortable learning environment.

Because Schiller International University is an international university, there is a student representative from almost every corner of the world. In a tourism career, understanding and appreciating differences in cultures is ideal, and is made possible through Schiller International University. In my opinion, studying at Schiller International University can be compared to taking a trip around the world every day...without leaving the classroom."
