Studying abroad can be a life-changing educational experience. Students studying and living in other countries learn independence, resourcefulness, and discover other cultures firsthand. To have the optimal study abroad experience, a student will want to find the program that best fits his or her needs and goals. There are several things to consider as you evaluate what study abroad program is right for you.

  1. Where will this program put you? The basic first question all potential studiers-abroad must answer is "Where do I want to go?" Once you pick your country of interest and look into programs that can get you there and start evaluating the specifics. If you want to study in Italy, do you want to be in Rome, Milan, the countryside? Pick a program where you can get where you actually want to go (or as close to it as you can get.) Some programs only offer limited options: one university in one city. Others, like the one I went through when I studied in Australia, offer tons of choices--universities literally all over the continent. Ask yourself this: Where do you want to go specifically and can this program get you there?

  2. Ask: What can I study? An art history major might love the idea of studying in Paris and find the perfect program that sends her to the Sorbonne. But what if the program is for business students and only allows her to take classes in finance and accounting? Not a good fit. Make sure the program you're applying to lets you study what you want and/or need to for your field of interest. Yes, a great part of the study abroad experience takes part outside the classroom, but, eventually, you will have to go to class, so make sure you can take the classes you need and want.
