With close proximity to NAU, the University Plaza and Varsity Shopping Centers in Flagstaff, Woodlands Village Flagstaff apartments are ideal for area students. However, studying in a nation other than your home country brings a range of invaluable experiences and opportunities. The following are three top reasons to study abroad for at least a semester:

1. Travel From Your Flagstaff Apartment is Horizon-Expanding

In the same way that travel gives the adventurer access to experiences and knowledge they can’t get from a book or video, studying abroad brings this times ten (or more.) Meeting people from different cultures, communicating in a non-native language, seeing new sights and having new experiences will expand your perspective on life and the world in amazing ways. You’ll likely have access to classes and subjects that aren’t available in your home country. Your Flagstaff apartment will be waiting when you return.

2. Finding Your Groove is Character-Building

Meeting new people, finding your way in new surroundings, and succeeding academically in an unfamiliar environment will help you to build tenacity and other skills while you’re there. You’ll become more independent, confident and self-assured. You’ll come back a more well-rounded and worldly person, with a broader and more enriched perspective on yourself and people in general.

3. You’ll Be Better Prepared for the World Economy

As technology grows and expands, the world gets smaller and smaller. We’re all far more connected than we once were. Many jobs require awareness of a world economy, not just a local or national one. After studying abroad, you’ll be better equipped and prepared for succeeding in the world economy no matter where you decide to live or which career path you choose.

Studying abroad can enrich your education and your life in countless ways. If you’re attending NAU in Flagstaff, consider making Woodlands Village Flagstaff apartments your residence during your studies. With easy walk ability to school, shopping, dining and entertainment, it’s the perfect backdrop for academic experiences. The beautiful Arizona desert views and Grand Canyon access are added bonuses to living here.

Many of the residents at apartments in Flagstaff are college students, and this means that they have super busy, adventure packed lives. However, all the fun that comes along with being a college student may lead many people to let their goals slide a bit. Fortunately, there are three simple ways that college students can stay on track and make the most of their college career.

1. Work With Your Advisor

All college students are assigned an advisor in their major, but many people don't take advantage of the wealth of knowledge that advisor has. Make an appointment to discuss career and life goals with your advisor to make sure that you're doing everything you can to achieve those goals. 

2. Schedule Your Studies 

You have a schedule for appointments, a part time job, and vacations — so why not have a schedule for something even more important, your studies? Many college students will show up for every class on time without fail, but when it comes to studying outside the classroom, they may fall flat. Schedule a study period every day, for example your "study hall" could last from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. This allows you to get all your work done, and you won't forget anything important for your classes. 

3. Work on an Internship

While internships are often unpaid, they are one of the best possible ways to determine whether your field of study in college is the right choice. Try to take on an internship job in your junior or even sophomore year, during the time that you are taking major-specific classes. This gives you experience in your field and helps you really learn what your future career will be like. 

Ready to find the perfect place to come home to after a busy day of study? Call Woodlands Village to learn about available floor plans today!
