Studying Abroad

What is studying abroad Studying abroad is the act of a student pursuing educational opportunities in a foreign country. Typically classes taken while studying abroad award credits transferable to higher education institutions in the home country. However, students may pursue these opportunities at any age and may not require college credit. Students studying abroad may live in a dormitory or apartment with other students or with a "host family", a group of people who live in that country and agree to provide student lodging.student educationalforeigncountrydormitory apartment family

Why to Study Abroad? When we interviewed some students who would want to study abroad they had different reasons for that. They said they would like to get better education, be responsible and confident, have a chance to discover themselves, to live away from their parents’ control. Others thought it would be a good chance to learn about another country, culture and language. Most of them want to do it for fun, what is better than having a good time while learning?
