The Truth About Attending College Abroad: Saving Money and Expanding Options

Tuesday, April 21 · 7:00 PM ET · Live on Zoom

U.S. college costs have never been higher. And for the first time, a lot of the families we work with are seriously looking overseas.

Four-year tuition at many U.S. universities now runs $200,000 or more, and that number keeps climbing. At the same time, families are discovering that highly regarded universities in the U.K., Canada, and Europe offer strong academics, English-taught programs, and total costs that are a fraction of what students pay at home.

But the questions come quickly, especially for families who are still weighing their options and aren't sure where to start.

Will employers recognize the degree? How does the application process actually work? Is this realistic for a student who isn't set on leaving the country, but wants to understand what else is out there?

This webinar answers those questions clearly and honestly to help you decide whether college abroad is the right path for your family.

In This Free 60-Minute Session, You'll Learn:

  • How total costs at international universities actually compare to U.S. schools — tuition, living expenses, and travel included

  • What the real trade-offs look like, and what day-to-day life actually feels like for American students living and studying abroad — heard directly from students who have done it

  • Which countries and programs are most accessible for American students, where English-taught options are strongest

  • What the application process actually requires

  • How employers and graduate programs view international degrees

  • How to evaluate whether this path is a strong fit for your student's goals

You'll leave knowing exactly what college abroad involves and whether it's worth exploring further for your student.
