Studying abroad is game changer and many students have attested to it. The benefits are invaluable and in some cases unquantifiable. Your global perspective will definitely change and maybe the course of your life too.
By taking up a study abroad, you most likely will be stepping out of your comfort zone, taking up a new way of life or culture, creating unforgettable memories all while meeting your programme requirements and graduating with that degree. Can you imagine shuffling between studies during the week and exploring a new country during the weekends let alone school holidays? Splendid!!
Here, you’ll be reading about the important things you need to know for a great experience based off my experience and experiences of others.
Learn from some students who took the leap to study abroad
I asked past and current international students to share their study abroad experiences. So, this section is all about their adventures, why they chose to study abroad and how that experience has benefitted them. I hope this information provides insights to potential international students keen on going on this journey.
Have you thought about sharing your experience? Do you have any exciting story you want to share? Please take a few minutes to complete this questionnaire here and I will help you share with the world from your wealth of adventures. We all have a story to tell, you know! Thanks for contributing.
