College students have always been drawn to international travel to expand their horizons and further their studies. And this desire has become a reality through study abroad programs.
Study abroad programs are a fantastic way to seek immersion in a different culture, earn academic credit, and forge lifelong memories. And it's a unique oppotunity to live in a foreign country with support of established institutions - ie your university - support which is not available after graduation.
Having done 3 study abroad programs myself during my 5 year degree, today we'll look at the advantages of studying abroad, the value of cultural exposure, and how these experiences might influence your academic and personal development.
