4 Reasons Everyone Should Study Abroad
Kylee Rossiter

Advising has begun and most of us are planning out our schedules for next semester and this summer. Study abroad interest meeting information has been posted all over campus and if you have even thought about possibly studying abroad this summer I have one thing to tell you. DO IT. Last summer I studied abroad in Greece and it was easily one of the best decisions I have made since I have been in college and this is why you should too:

1. I met some of my greatest friends


I signed up to study abroad only knowing one other person going and ended up with new best friends by the end of our trip.

2. I visited places that I have always dream of visiting... and I got class credit for it

Being able to go to Greece and get full credit for a class while traveling and having fun was the BEST!

full credit for a class while traveling and having fun was the BEST!

3. I ate A LOT of good food

Trying new deserts was my favorite part.

I will never forget the people I met, the places I visited, and the history I learned about. It was truly an amazing experience and I was so blessed to have the opportunity to go.


If you are considering Studying abroad or have heard about it LOOK INTO IT!!!!!! I promise you won’t regret it.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving.
