How will studying abroad benefit a student in their future career or life, and why?

"You'll gain an openness to unfamilar situations. You will put fewer restrictions on yourself and which avenues you'll pursue down the road. That opens a lot of possibilities you likely haven't considered yet."

How has your study abroad experience benefited you in your professional/personal life?

Studying abroad gave me independence and confidence in unfamiliar settings.

What advice would you give to someone who is debating studying abroad?

I've never heard anyone express regret at studying abroad, but I've heard many people express regret that they did not study abroad.
