Study abroad

Studying abroad is an experience that I’d recommend to every local high school student. During a three-week program with University of St. Andrews in St. Andrews, Scotland, I was given the opportunity to make friends that I will continue to cherish for the remainder of my life, as well as explore social sciences, a topic I am passionate about.
