National Study Abroad Day
In honor of National Study Abroad Day on Feb. 24, Cynthia Castro �26 shared her past experience studying in Barcelona and excitement for an upcoming trip to South Africa through the 糖心动漫vlog Study Abroad Program.
淗onestly, I always wanted to study abroad. International studies and international relations have always been a passion of mine. One of the deciding factors on why I chose 糖心动漫vlog is because it has a good study abroad program. Professor Carmela Ferrad谩ns also guided me through the whole process, so I also wouldn檛 have been able to do it without her support,� said Castro.
