"I would recommend studying abroad to other students. Not only do you get the chance to specialise in something totally different, but you get transferable skills, like emotional resilience – which will help during your exams, further studies and future career."

Get ahead of your peers – whatever your background
Study abroad supports social mobility. Analysis by Universities UK shows students who go abroad outperform their peers academically and professionally. They are:
- 19% more likely to gain a first class degree
- 20% less likely to be unemployed
- 10% more likely to be in ‘graduate’ jobs six months after graduation.
And, for students from under-represented and disadvantaged groups, the benefits of studying abroad are even more prominent.
