Diversity in Study Abroad 

Race/ethnicity and study abroad

As a multicultural student, you may be concerned about facing potential racial bias and prejudice without the comfort of your usual support system. On the other hand, you may be looking forward to being part of the majority population for the first time in your life. Or, you may be planning a self-discovery sojourn to the country or region of your family's heritage.

Whatever reasons you have for studying abroad, you will find adjusting abroad can be a positive growth experience. It may not always be fun but, in fact, it can present a unique learning opportunity that will serve you well in the future.

To learn more as you prepare for your journey (including special scholarship information), visit Information for Multicultural Students.
