Study Abroad Benefits
CHOICE
You have almost unlimited choice if you wish to study abroad. Just make sure whichever university you choose - whether it’s in the US, Europe, the UK or Australia - is the right one for you.
QUALITY
Deciding to study abroad helps you focus on quality in your education. Global rankings, such as the Times Higher Education QS World University Rankings, can help you focus on some of the most highly regarded institutions worldwide.
INDEPENDENCE
Going to university always entails a step towards autonomy from your home, but this is multiplied many times over and is even more rewarding when the experience takes place abroad.
EXPERIENCE A NEW CULTURE
In today’s international world many of us will interact with people of different cultures on a daily basis, but nothing is quite the same as being able to live in another culture - exactly what studying abroad allows you to do.
LEARN A NEW LANGUAGE
If you choose to study abroad, you’ll have the opportunity to learn a new language. Most universities offer programs in English - but you'll have to go shopping in Italian, order dinner in Spanish or buy your metro ticket in Japanese.
CAREER ADVANTAGE
People who have studied abroad display a higher level of independence and resourcefulness. If you've got study abroad experience on your CV/ resume, you could be one step ahead of the crowd.
PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH
Studying abroad will enable you to grow as a person in ways that go far beyond those that occur at university at home.
NETWORK
Imagine the group of people you’ll be able to meet if you choose to study abroad on the other side of the world. These people of different cultures, languages and religions could become friends or even business partners in the years to come.
TRAVEL
International student support services at top universities around the world organise day or weekend trips for international students - experience life outside the classroom while you study.
HAVE FUN
One of the top ten reasons for studying abroad is to have fun - it's that simple!
