When someone leaves the familiar behind and takes a risk into the unknown, it is showing a commitment to understand other people, not only from textbooks. A year spent overseas will be a year that will redefine you.
You will face challenges, have experiences and discover a new way to look at the world. There will be differences and similarities in people that you meet. A year overseas teaches you how to build friendships, take on responsibilities for yourself, while respecting differences and tolerating the beliefs of others. Exchange students are leaders they develop leadership skills, self-confidence and a greater understanding of the world around them.
