Conclusion
We hope that your
child decides to go
abroad; we think it is a
tremendous growth and
learning opportunity.
However, only the
student him or herself
can know what they will
want to do. Study abroad
provides for a learning
opportunity it is
impossible to get
without going outside of
one's comfortable and
familiar environment.
The academic learning,
cultural understanding
and appreciation,
confidence and pride
that come from
completing a study
abroad semester are
lasting and valuable,
and the opportunity to
successfully complete
something that is
recognized as a
challenge offers the
opportunity to use it as
an example in
interviews, to peers,
bosses and oneself of
ability, flexibility,
intelligence and wisdom.
