BlogAbroad.com Season 4: Behind the Scenes

As a BlogAbroad Blogger, you have an unparalleled opportunity to share your study abroad experiences with both perspective students and other interested readers. You will soon find people eagerly reading your posts and responding with comments, questions, and even advice. Some of our previous bloggers had feature stories written about them in several national newspapers as well as their hometown and college papers.

Your blog can also help you stay in touch with family and friends back home, and keep them updated on your actions. Your blog will later serve as a journal and record of what you experienced abroad. It will be something you can reflect on and treasure for years to come.

And as though all that weren't enough, there is a $500 prize for successful completion of a semester blogging for BlogAbroad.com.

In order to be a BlogAbroad Blogger, you must meet the following criteria:

  • You must be 18 years of age or older and in good standing at a college or university.
  • You must be enrolled in a full-time semester-long study abroad program for Fall of 2006.
  • You must be willing and able to meet all stipulations as described in the Blogging Content Guidelines.
  • You must post at least 3 times a week while abroad as well as once per week before leaving for your program.
  • You must post 3 pictures of your adventures a week.
  • You must be willing to interact with those reading your blog by responding to at least three comments per week.

    if you're looking for personal content, then why do you have it in your guidlines to not swear or talk about sex? those are personal things that may relate to the new places and things a person will experience when they study abroad. if i ever study abroad i might apply for this anyway.

    Excellent question.  Right now, we want to make sure that study abroad advisors use this to inspire more people to study abroad, so we have to be careful with that kind of content.  But we are constantly creating more freedoms, so don't worry about that.
