We hope students will return from studying abroad with a greater understanding of, respect for, and appreciation of world religions.
The best way you can prepare for inevitable discussions about religion is to inform yourself about the prevalent religions in your host country and their styles of practice.
You may even discover a new thing or two about your own beliefs while you are abroad!
