Your first day (or two) in Iceland – w/ Patrick McKinnion

Harpan, the home of the Iceland Symphony Orchestra

It never came through Patrick McKinnion’s mind that studying abroad is an effortless thing; however, his University Exchange study abroad trip to Iceland reminded him how intense living and studying in a foreign country can be. He realized that applying and gathering documentation is critically essential for starting life in Reykjavik.

Spending a part of your university experience abroad will expand your understanding of the world and help you develop global skills – adaptability, intercultural communication, learning on the fly, etc. – that are in high demand by employers and graduate programs. For many students, studying abroad is a transformational experience.
