Imagine that you are flying to a new country, barely speaking a second language and everything seems to be from outer space. Suddenly, when you meet a new team and coaches, you are surrounded by a different culture, different people, different architecture and different food. You then enter the lecture halls with a variety of subjects, teachers, and assignments. All this happens away from close family and friends. Yes, such a scenario can be scary and overwhelming, BUT imagine the feeling you get when you realize that you are able to overcome those initial fears and meet all of these challenges. This is when you grow and develop when you leave your comfort zone. This courage will be highly rewarded with greater confidence and personal development which will be valuable throughout your life.
An internationally accredited bachelor's or master's degree, proficiency in English and experience of living in a foreign country are a huge advantage for future employers and increase your chances of securing a high standard of living.

In addition, various school projects with international companies and internships will improve and broaden your global contacts, and some of the friendships you make will last a lifetime. Overall, as a student athlete, you will grow up as a competitor, person, and learn a lot about yourself, others, and life.
