We think everyone should study abroad! There are so many reasons why studying abroad can be a life-changing experience. If you still need to be convinced why you should study abroad , consider these:
WHERE SHOULD I STUDY ABROAD?
Maybe you already know exactly in which country or continent you want to study - but in which university? Or maybe you are really open to countries, but you know you want to go to a top notch biology program since you were pre-medical.

Another thing to consider: does your university partner with universities abroad? If so, this may be the easiest route for you, especially since it will likely be transparent when it comes to transferring credits. Many schools have partnerships with a variety of universities around the world, so ask your study office abroad.

If you don't have a country in mind yet


If you are of full age in English, it might not make sense to study in China. But if you are specifically studying world literature, studying in China might be a great idea. Some countries are known for different things, and while there are probably great programs in many countries, this can be a good place to start if you're just starting out. Consider the following ideas:

Business and finance: think of the big cities that are hubs of activity: London, New York, Hong Kong, Toronto, Sydney and Tokyo.

English and literature: the main literary centers include Santiago, Oxford, Paris, Saint Petersburg, Dublin and Edinburgh.

Medicine and public health: developing countries often give you practical experience, but also think about the best health care in the world. Consider places like Denmark, South Africa, Ghana, Thailand or India.

Politics and law: political hotspots include Brussels, Geneva and Washington, DC

Engineering and technology: think of innovation poles like Singapore, San Francisco, Berlin, Tel Aviv, Stockholm and Lisbon.

Visual arts: try a city with a rich cultural history of visual arts and tons of museums, like Florence, Paris, Barcelona, ​​Beijing or Chicago.

Performing Arts and Music: Theater and music centers include (but are not limited to) Havana, Nashville, London, Johannesburg, Buenos Aires and Berlin.
