Benefits of Educational Travel
Even in a digital world that we live in today where we can email China, facebook friends in South America, and call Italy- all before we eat breakfast, there are many benefits developed by interacting with other cultures.
Did you know that 67% of students ages 12-18 who participate in educational tours earn a college degree or higher? Not only are they more successful after high school, but they have better grades IN high school. And with the increased number of students applying to colleges, and the top schools admitting lower number of students, colleges admissions officers say that study/travel abroad differentiates them from other students!
Students gain increased independence. They become comfortable being away from home, and learn to adapt, succeed, and cooperate in different environments.
Students gain confidence. Students see a new possibility in the world, in the abilities, and in their future. This quality stays with them throughout their lives.
Students have enhanced career prospects. When students travel abroad, it inspires them to embark on international careers and challenge themselves from a broader perspective.
Students gain lasting friendships that last a lifetime. Whether they were friends for years, or just met on the tourbus, friends who experience traveling abroad together share a special connection that often last forever.
