Having a study abroad experience is a once-in-a-lifetime, life-changing opportunity with enormous benefits. Whether you wish to learn a new language, fulfill requirements of your major, or simply focus on general electives, having an experience abroad will set you apart from your peers, enhance your studies, and engage you as a citizen of the world.
Education abroad is more than travel and adventure. You will gain skills in cross-cultural communication, learn to think critically, and develop self-confidence, flexibility, and an appreciation of diversity. Most importantly, you will increase your awareness of the interconnected nature of the world. These skills are an essential component of your college education.
