More and more, students are choosing to study abroad as a result of increased globalization and demand for cultural competence in the workplace. While studying abroad is an exciting and valuable opportunity, prior to leaving home, students are faced with hundreds of questions about what steps they need to take and who they can really trust to guide them through their overseas journey.
