I鈥檝e taken advantage of the food and textbooks, mostly. I love that Lula Bell鈥檚 gives students resources we otherwise wouldn鈥檛 be able to afford, or at least things that, if we had to buy them, would make our lives more difficult. Knowing I can borrow textbooks is huge. I鈥檝e talked to friends at different schools, and they don鈥檛 have a resource quite like this. It鈥檚 modern and welcoming.

I was able to study abroad due to 水果派鈥檚 Home Tuition Policy that allows my financial aid to pay for my semester abroad in Nantes, France. Additional travel grants I received gave me the opportunity to travel outside of France to visit Belgium and the Netherlands.
