The jobs we'll have in and after college require a decent amount of credentials and experience, no matter what your major is. Whether you're a business student, biology major, or interested in being a kindergarten teacher, anyone can benefit from studying abroad.

We've all been told to take advantage of this opportunity because most college kids don't. So if you're thinking of traveling over USA borders, consider the best places based on your major or minor.


1. Science Major

Science and technology in African, Latin and South American countries advances every day. From biology to plant science, programs in these regions are great for an aspiring scientist.

2. Nursing Major

Health majors can certainly benefit from medical practice overseas, especially when minoring in a different language. Particularly in less privileged medical countries like Peru and South Africa, this would be a great experience.

3. Business Major

The top three places Americans go to study abroad according to Forbes are the United Kingdom, Italy, and Spain. However, countries like Japan and Belgium have incredible programs for business majors as well as top corporate companies.

4. Education Major

Working with students that may not speak your same language is challenging and in countries like Somalia and Pakistan, women barely get any education. If you're interested in helping others and teaching, these would be great opportunities.

5. Journalism Major

New York University created top programs for journalism majors in Accra, Ghana; Prague, Czech Republic; Shanghai, China; and London, England.


6. Pre-Law Major

Any university with close ties to its country's government would be ideal for law majors. According to GlobaLinks Learning Abroad, New Zealand and Australia's universities fit this criteria.


7. Engineering Major

European countries like Germany and the United Kingdom not only have incredible programs for every major, but also engineering. Home to corporations like Volkswagen and Siemens, Germany is a hub for technology.


8. Arts Major

Depending on the type of art you're studying, any country with a rich general history will also have a rich art history. And don't forget the gorgeous views in places like Italy or Spain.


9. Language Major

If you're a French major, don't only consider France! Belgium, Haiti, and many African countries are French speaking as well. The same goes for any language, major or minor.

Research your school and pick a program that's right for you. No matter what country you want to go to, no matter your major, you can make it work.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
