While freshmen are acclimating to their new college campus, many sophomores, juniors and seniors are learning the ropes of a new environment: the study abroad program. The most recent IIE report (released last November) indicates that 260, 327 American students elected to study abroad for credit during the 2008/2009 academic year. But studying abroad is expensive and in a struggling economy where tuition is already astronomical, many students must consider whether the investment in an international academic experience is really worth the extra money. In our latest infographic, we take a look at the ROI of studying abroad to evaluate whether it’s all fun and games or if there are real long term benefits to studying in another country.

Hello. I would love the link to this graphic. With the link, could you please tell me any info on the copyright for this piece or if we can print it freely. Thank you!
Hi, it is supposed to be IIE report, instead of IEE.
From another Office for Study Abroad, we’d love to print this as well. Please send along the link to print it. Much appreciated for your excellent graphic!
I’d like access to to the printable graphic, please.
another request for the graphic, this is really well articulated. I’ve been doing research on study abroad programs for a little while now and appreciate the ability to articulate the intangibles. Frontiers Journal is an essential source for anyone looking to learn more about study abroad.
So true. I’ve been asked about my study abroad experience in every interview. Totally took the pressure off and gave me a chance to show my personality and enthusiasm. I also received two job opportunities because of my study abroad blogging. Blogging is a great way to get your name out there and great for your resume especially if you’re interested in communications/marketing/social media/digital media etc. Even though I purchased my own domain, I recommend creating a blog on Students Gone Global which is launching in January and will be better than Tumblr and Blogger.
