Basics: The Study Abroad Essentials
For many students embarking on their first ever study abroad adventure, the thought of doing an internship while overseas might seem overwhelming. After all, you've worked hard to get the grades, applied to the best schools, and organized millions of other details to get this far – so why complicate things further?
Airport security is one of the most challenging parts of traveling for many students, especially those globetrotting to one of the SAF’s many host universities spanning 25 countries. It can be frustrating and disorienting to wait in long lines while dealing with rules that seem to be constantly revised depending on where you’re going.
The weeks leading up to a trip are thrilling, particularly if you're going to study abroad in a new country for a few months. Packing your bags and getting through airport security may be challenging, and then everything grinds to a halt when you're in a seat for the long haul. However, these flights are an excellent chance to enjoy yourself or get excited about your new adventure.
