Studying abroad (international) or away (domestic) can be one of the most transformative
& informative experiences in your education, career path, even your personal life.
Not to mention, it's a lot of fun!
Whether it's your first time outside the state or the hundredth time, nothing is quite
the same after you go. We believe studying abroad and away, along with other kinds
of cross-cultural engagement, promotes integrity, cultural curiosity, adaptability,
and positive leadership skills. Be prepared to have a refreshed perspective and attitude
about the world around you, with new friends and memories for years to follow.
