first things first, JUST DO IT!
There are 32,140 students that roam CSULB's campus and roughly 1% of those students actually study abroad each year. Why is that? Our school is the second runner up in having the best study abroad program in the whole Cal-State system!
What a typical student will probably do after finding out about the program is call his/her parents, tell them about all the exciting places they could go, get really riled up about it, then a couple weeks later throw those pamphlets along with their plans of traveling down the drain.
Those that want to, but can’t seem to go through with the process should know that there is a club on campus that can provide that extra push for students who need it.Bryan Duran, a current junior and Foreign Correspondent for the club said sayonara to our campus on Monday when he left for Japan to start his yearlong study.
Out of the 77 students that applied for the CSU International Program, he was one of the 70 that were accepted that are now on their way to countries all over the world. So in the spirit of spontaneity or Oktoberfest, students should follow in Bryan’s footsteps along with Nike’s advice and “just do it.”
The Study Abroad center is located in Brotman Hall room 201. Workshops are scheduled weekly and are held in the conference rooms inside their office. Check out the website to access the schedule or talk to an assistant and schedule an appointment.
