Returning home

Before going home you may want to go to a ‘returning home seminar’ run by your institution. Remember that when you return home, some things will have changed. Sometimes people experience a similar type of culture shock when they return home. Don’t worry it’s normal (you‘ve just gotten used to living in another country). The seminar will help you with receiving your results, travel plans and joining associations such as alumni. You may also wish to get some career advice before you leave


Alumni associations

The benefits of joining an Alumni association before you return home is that you will get help on possible job and business opportunities. You well get help in continuing ties with friends that you have made in the course of your studies.
