• The concept of studying abroad was based on the assumption that graduates would return to their homeland to serve colonial administration once they had developed skills and absorbed the values of the colonial rulers.

• Studying abroad is not only a step towards a successful career, it is an experience of a lifetime. You will never learn as much in your own country as you learn living and studying overseas. As a student, you absolutely have to find a way to spend at least a semester (better a year) overseas during your studies. All career benefits of studying overseas (skills, languages, connections) are critical, and yet, secondary, to the main experience you get.
