These questions will ask about the students’ perceptions ofstudy abroad and probe why those that did not participate did not pursue overseas study: 1. Were you made aware of study abroad opportunities? 2. Did you study abroad during your time at Villanova? a. Would you describe the experience as positive? Explain. b. What type of program did you participate in (summer, semester)? 3. If you did not study abroad, indicate why you did not (for example, you may not have had an interest, your GPA may have been too low to qualify, etc.).The academic indicators have been studied and these
