As the world grows increasingly closer, it is no longer enough to simply have studied abroad for a semester or claim passing familiarity with a different culture. Instead, for the most competitive in the 21st century, the ultimate trademark of having an international mindset is having an international degree. An Education Abroad partners with American students, both prospective undergraduates and graduates, who wish to earn a degree abroad. An international degree often serves as a key to having the chance to work abroad, further enhancing one's global soft skills. This is especially true for graduate students, as Americans are often sought by European universities to provide a different perspective; in the balance, Americans can earn their graduate degrees in up to half the time as what is required in the United States. Studying for a degree abroad is not for everyone; there is little chance to change one's mind, and an incredible amount of focus is necessary within the given degree field. However, for those with the dedication to do so, we are here to help make the admissions transition much easier. For more information, visit us at www.aneducationabroad.com.
