Culture Shock & Re-entry

Traveling to a new part of the world can often challenge personal beliefs and expose students to cultural norms different from what they are used to.  This can be a very exciting, yet sometimes frustrating, experience.  It can take time to understand and adjust to new ideas, ways of doing things and basic living and learning methods.  Students can also face this when returning to the U.S. 

Please consider taking the time to complete an online training session to prepare yourself for departure and return.
