I am thankful to God that I was able to study abroad in South Korea. To be awarded with the Government Korean Scholarship was like a dream come true. My decision to study abroad was one of my best decisions that I won’t ever regret. Like most people, studying abroad has always been my dream. I want to go outside of my comfort zone and experience the real world. Through this experience, I had the chance to travel, make friends with people from foreign countries, and learn not only their cultures but also languages. The whole experience and the friends I met made the memory so precious and unforgettable.
I’m really thankful to my family and friends who always support me, and also BINUS IO and Dong-A University for giving me the opportunity. Last but not least, I truly encourage you to be brave and go for your dreams!

Thank God that only by His grace we could study abroad for a semester together through ISEP. Thank you to our family who always supports us, and to our friends, teachers, and the International Office personnels from BINUS UNIVERSITY and Queens University of Charlotte who have been very kind to help us in this program.
This journey has been such a precious experience for us. Through this program, we have learned how to get through the difficult times. We will never forget the day it was announced that we were selected to be able to study in Queens University of Charlotte together! It was one of the best days of our lives ever! We got to experience living in and adapting to a completely different environment, separated far from our family and friends. We have grown to be more independent and embraced a new culture. This experience was really worthy! We hope you can also experience this amazing journey.
