Semester / Year Education Abroad Essay Part Two: Re-Entry Project Your international experience will make you a special resource to the Cardinal Stritch community including your student colleagues, faculty and the International Education office. Stritch students are required to carry out a re-entry service project upon their return to the U.S. and to Stritch which promotes your specifc education abroad program and Stritch International Education at Stritch and/or in your community. Projects should maximize the impact of your experience abroad by extending the benefits you received to your campus and community. Projects should be clear, able to be completed in approximately one semester and have obtainable goals. Upon completion of your project you will be required to submit a two-page final project report. Briefly outline your proposed project to promote your program and Stritch International Education. How will this project impact your home university or home community? What are your specific project goals? What is your target population and how will your project impact this group? How will you integrate the impact of your experiences abroad into your project? What if any campus departments, student organizations and/or community organizations will you collaborate with in promoting your education abroad program and Stritch International Education? Have you already made contact with these groups? What documentation, if any, do you plan to include in your final project report highlighting the completion of your re-entry service project? Part Three: Personal Resume Some foreign program applications, internships abroad and scholarships require a resume. Please submit a resume of your past academic and work experience through the semester prior to your education abroad departure. Please submit your resume by e-mail. This means you will need to submit a resume at the point you submit your essay and Stritch application packet. You should ensure your resume is updated and current the month prior to actual program departure. If you do not have a resume yet please view the available guide to successful resume development from Stritch Career Services. It is highly suggested that you meet with Stritch Career Services to review your resume before submitting it with this application packet.
