How to study abroad
It made me
Explosively Happy!
 "I was a bit reckless."
How I did it: I received an email from a Professor of mine in college, about a study abroad trip that another college hosts. I read all of the attached information and thought, "No way. It's not possible." The idea stuck with me though, until the one day that I mentioned the opportunity to my Grandma, in passing. She, of course, jumped on it. She pushed me to apply for summer financial aid, and to gather more information. She helped me raise extra money for food and entertainment costs. After hearing from one person that this was possible, I ran after it with all I had. Lessons & tips: Do some research. Want it with all that you are. Work toward that goal.

How I did it: It was one of the hardest things I've ever done but I'm definitely glad I did study abroad. I found a program through a search engine with my college.

How I did it: I enrolled in a Media Studies program in London where I have classes 2 days a week and work in a new media art gallery the other 3 days. It's fantastic!

cultured
How I did it: I knew I wanted to study abroad before I even knew which university I wanted to attend. After I chose my major after my 2nd year, I decided it was time to be serious about study abroad. I knew that I wanted to be in Europe but I wasn't sure if I wanted to be somewhere for 4 months. If I didn't like it, I would be stuck! For me the best option financially and academically was to take a couple of classes over the summer. I started … Read how I did it…

I’ve always loved the Japanese culture and would love to visit it. So I figured I can visit and study over there and gain a great experience. Now I just have to focus on my grades and save and hopefully it’ll come true.

I got accepted into the program today! I didn’t even realize the decision would be made based on only one meeting (I would have definitely brought my paperwork with me if I did) but I’m not complaining since it worked out.
Having good grades, volunteering at the local Japanese cultural center this semester, knowing how I planned to finance the trip if I couldn’t get a scholarship and dressing nice for the interview all seemed to help a lot.
Good luck everyone else who is working on this!
