Undergraduate / Why/What/How - Study abroad essay for London [3]
1. why you want to study abroad; 2. what you hope to gain/learn from studying and living abroad; 3. how you feel this time abroad will fit with your academic studies at your home institution.
I have always wanted to travel the world and learn about the different places that I have only read about. I strongly feel that studying abroad will be a powerful asset to me because it will give the tools I need in life to make me a better student and a better person. I believe that going to London will help me with my people's skills and greatly improve my self-confidence.
I know that this may be a once in a lifetime opportunity for me and I don't want to have any regrets for not taking this chance. I want to learn about another countries history, not from a book but from going there and actually seeing where these historical events happened and how it affected that country and its people. I want to make new connections abroad and hope that they will help me understand and see a new way of living. Also this could help me strengthen my international ties that can help me greatly in a rapidly growing job market that focuses a lot on international marketing relations.
Going to London will help me with my Communication degree because communication is how we, as humans, send, receive and interpret meanings in our everyday life. Everybody communicates, but it's how we communicate that helps us understand our wants and needs. By learning how people in London communicate, and how that differs from how Americans communicate, it will help me get a boost on other communication Majors by showing that I can interact with countries other than my own.
