Begin with the program name, location, and dates using a Month\/Year format, followed by the name of the institution. Use bullet points to showcase specific examples of what you accomplished and learned, emphasizing skills and insights that align with the job requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that the format may vary depending on where you include this experience on your resume (we will cover how to format different sections in the next part of the blog).<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Key factors to consider when showcasing your study abroad experience on your resume:<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Treat your study abroad program similarly to a work or internship experience to ensure it holds weight on your resume.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use action-oriented language to clearly convey your responsibilities, achievements, and outcomes, if possible.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Highlight skills that are transferable to the job you\u2019re applying for, such as adaptability, cross-cultural communication, research capabilities, and leadership.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be specific and strategic in selecting examples that best showcase your growth and the value you bring to an employer.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider where on your resume the study abroad experience fits best (e.g., work experience, education, or a separate section for international experience).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This example illustrates how to present study abroad experience in a strategic and impactful way on your resume.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"bluebg \"><div class=\"bluebg-cnt\">\n<p><b style=\"font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;\">Living Routes Study Abroad, Findhorn, Scotland, May-August 2023<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">University of Massachusetts, Amherst<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Participated in an intensive cultural immersion program, attending local events and workshops to enhance cultural understanding and awareness.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engaged in collaborative coursework and group projects with students from various countries, developing strong cross-cultural teamwork and communication skills.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conducted research on [specific topic], deepening my understanding of [relevant field].<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Volunteered with [organization or project], contributing to [specific outcome or goal].<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<h3><b>How do I format study abroad experience on my resume?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three main sections where study abroad experience can be included on your resume. The key is to place it where it is most relevant to the job you&#8217;re applying for. Always use bullet points to make information easy for employers and recruiters to read and comprehend quickly. This format increases the likelihood that your resume will capture their attention and be read thoroughly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below, we provide examples for each section to help you decide the best format for your resume:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Education section (example):<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your study abroad program was a significant part of your academic journey, include it as a separate entry under your college education section. This placement is ideal if the program included coursework, research, or academic achievements that are pertinent to the role you\u2019re pursuing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Including bullet points under your study abroad experience in the education section is optional. Only add them if there are relevant accomplishments or coursework that align with the job you&#8217;re applying for.

However, it may still be relevant in other countries, depending on industry norms and job expectations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A cover letter is your opportunity to introduce yourself, showcase your written communication skills, and explain why you&#8217;re a strong candidate.

Instead, consider whether the experience is relevant to the job and how it demonstrates your value to the workplace.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use specific language from the job posting and the company\u2019s website to show that you\u2019ve done your research and understand your potential role. <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Highlight the skills and experiences gained during your study abroad that align with the job&#8217;s requirements.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>If your experience is relevant, mention it in the first paragraph.
