The much-awaited second edition! Study abroad has never been so popular. Students are embarking on life-changing adventures, and they need some tried and true advice. The Exchange Student Survival Kit has become the essential guide for young people traveling abroad, helping them better understand the unique experience of international exchange programs.

This much-awaited new edition includes: - New communications technology as it affects the experience: e-mail, instant messaging, cell phones, online games and blogs and information searches. - Important advice on personal safety and pressing concerns for parents and students in light of war, terrorism and crime. - Changes in society and family life that affect travelers: fast food replacing family meals, a new emphasis on religious beliefs, consumerism and globalism.
