About This Quiz

Studying abroad is a great opportunity to get out of your comfort zone for a while. Immerse yourself in other cultures and gorge yourself on food you've only ever heard of before, and some you haven't! If you talk to anyone who has studied abroad and trust that you would know because they talk about it constantly, they will tell you it's the best decision they ever made. Sure, being away from home might be uncomfortable and daunting, but you'll grow so much through the experience that it'll help you be more independent in the long run.

Maybe there's a place you've always wanted to go, and studying abroad is the perfect excuse to go there. But perhaps you have absolutely no idea where you would want to go. Now's the time to think about what you want out of a place to live for half a year. Are there things you can't live without? Are you willing to give up a lot of extras to broaden your horizons? Don't forget about the actual school. That is part of the reason you're going away, after all. With so many options, how can one narrow it down? You can take advice from others, or you can just take this quiz!
