What to do Before Paying for your Volunteer or Study Abroad Program

Posted on October 22, 2008 - Filed Under 5848 | Leave a Comment

Often times, (myself included) students will sign up for a
study/volunteer abroad program based on a good feeling.  They might see that the description on the
program website best fits their desires, they might have been sweet-talked into
it by a coordinator working for the program, or they might just figure that all
companies are the same and they might as well just pick one and go with
it.  All of these sound like reasonable
ways to choose an abroad program, but they have been known to backfire.
