Re: intership vs. study abroad

Take the opportunity to study abroad if/while your school pays for it. Internships are great but if your school is like mine, you can do an internship in the stead of a course. Or basically, you can always do an internship, but you might not always have the chance to study abroad (i.e. major requirements and conflicting coursework, etc).

Being able to spend time in another country is, as cliche'd as it sounds, the experience of a lifetime. Seriously. And you might decide to travel again after graduation or possibly do your graduate studies abroad () You'll never know but take this chance to find out.

Anyways, next summer (before senior year) I'm debating whether to study abroad or get an internship. I really want to study abroad but I feel an intership would be more beneficial.

Seeing as I plan on going straight into grad school after I graduate, would having an internship really matter that much? Should I take the chance to study abroad while I can?

I just don't know. Any suggestions would be helpful
