    It goes without saying, that an opportunity to study abroad is an incredible experience and as SU students we very lucky to have SU International to afford us these opportunities. I have always wanted to travel overseas and going on an academic exchange program seemed like a good idea and so I thoroughly researched the various programs that SU International had to offer. That’s my first tip – RESEARCH. One of my favourite motto’s is “Luck Favours the Prepared” and this was definitely true for the entire experience from beginning to end.

    Wow!! Reflecting on my experience at Radboud University in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, I am both overwhelmed and incredibly grateful. It was an absolute privilege to attend the summer school programme with students from across the globe.

    I would like to start this blogpost by encouraging other students, irrespective of where they are in their academic career, to apply for similar opportunities in the future. Having attended the summer school programme at later stage of my academic career, I wish I did it earlier. Apart from the academic component of the summer school programme, I learnt a lot about myself and met students from diverse backgrounds.

    I was extremely excited when SU International notified me of my acceptance to attend the summer school programme at Radboud University, but I could never have dreamt how much it would mean to me.

    Dreams do come true and we have the power to make them real. We just have to believe in ourselves and anything is possible. If your dream is to travel and study abroad, then you have to have a passport. Go to the Department of Home Affairs and apply for one. It’s a small step, but it helps kick start the process of turning a dream into reality.

    The application process for an international summer school is rather straight forward – all instructions are available on SU International’s website.  A key component is selecting a summer school that you are interested in. Research, research and research the courses and programmes you may be interested in.
