study abroad
Overseas college term
Study abroad is an educational program where students attend a school or university in a foreign country, typically for a semester or year.
The term functions as both noun and verb: She's considering a study abroad in Spain, I studied abroad in college.
The experience is associated with language immersion, cultural exposure, and personal growth—often romanticized in retrospect.
