STUDY ABROAD

An Introduction

Student Comment

“Living outside your home country allows you to see the world from a whole new perspective. It changes the way you think about everything: the world, politics, culture, yourself.”

Student Comment

“Studying abroad was one of the greatest things I have ever done. I went from being a sheltered ‘townie’ to an experienced world traveler. . . .

All that, AND I got a grade!”

Student Comment

“Budapest, Hungary offered me the time of my life. I met people from around the world—China, Germany, Amsterdam, Nigeria, New Zealand, Australia. . . . Study abroad should not be optional; it should be mandatory for everyone!”
