Listen to this video to hear more from The New College Perspective.
From their site: “I’m thrilled to announce a new mini-series in partnership with First Gen Go Global, an organization dedicated to empowering first-generation students to see the world! 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬: First-gen students make up nearly HALF of all US college students, yet represent just 8% of study abroad participants. Students who study abroad graduate faster, earn higher GPAs, and secure better-paying jobs after graduation. The barriers aren’t just financial—they’re often about mindset and not seeing examples of people like you traveling globally.”
