IIE Blog: Overcoming Obstacles to Study Abroad: The Fourth "C"

Allan Goodman, IIE President and CEO, discusses the importance of "champions" in helping students overcome the three leading obstacles to study abroad: cost, curriculum, and culture. Goodman calls on freshman advisors, faculty, coaches, parents, and financial aid professionals to help students at every stage of the educational process. "And [IIE] can help such champions at each step of the process to obtain information, scholarships, and know-how," writes Goodman.
