“While I was in high school, my family had the opportunity to host three foreign exchange students. From that moment on I knew that I wanted to do some type of study abroad program.” 🌍✨
Kaitlyn, Public Relations and Digital Media Innovation with a minor in Theatre, is heading to London and Amsterdam as part of a program focused on visiting media companies and exploring the industry in an international context.
Kaitlyn shared that her early experiences hosting exchange students, along with working at a summer camp and at Disney World alongside coworkers from around the world, sparked her passion for learning about different cultures and perspectives.
She is grateful for the support of her family throughout this process and has also been working hard to help make this opportunity possible.
She is especially looking forward to networking with professionals in the media industry and learning what it is like to work for media companies in another country.
Her biggest goal is "to not take anything for granted, I want to try new things and just do everything that I can.”
Her advice to future students:
“Do your research and find out what program would be the best for you and your goals. I would also say you never know until you try! Put yourself out there because you might just have one of the best experiences of your life!” ✈️
Study abroad is about more than travel—it is about connection, curiosity, and discovering new possibilities for your future.
