A number of factors must be taken into account when deciding whether studying abroad is right for you:

• Ask yourself:
  Why do I want to study abroad?
  What do I want to obtain from the experience?
  Am I comfortable traveling to a strange country by myself?
  
• Identify possible countries/programs. You may choose from a list of approved programs or decide that you’d like to venture out to a new place altogether.
  
• Consider options like geographical location (developed/non-developed country, English/non-English speaking country), curricular focus (course availability), program specifics (large vs. small university campus), living arrangements (dorm/apartment/home stays), weather conditions, and even food!
