Why I Want To Be an Exchange Student
The best way to learn is knowing and living the moment. I am in my third year of bachelor of public relations at Universidad del Sagrado Corazón in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I would like to do a student exchange because this experience will provide to me many tools for my professional and personal life. I choose the University of Nevada in Las Vegas for this experience.

First at all, living in a foreign country allows the acceptance and understanding of different cultures and community perspective. This is very important to me because in the major that I am studying I will have contact with different persons of others countries, we will have diverse traditions, language and different ways to think. That will be preparing me to face in in a future.

This means that everything is in my hands. It all depends of me. Furthermore allows to development analytical and problem solving skills.

Also allows to me to practice the native language, english. That helps to be a fluent talking and being a fully bilingual person. Following the colonial status of Puerto Rico, we are blessed to know a second language. This exchange will help me to practicing and improve my skills.

Last and not least, I choose this University because Las Vegas is a very multicultural and popular city. It is a big campus with beautiful landscapes. My home campus is small and homey because everyone knows everyone. This will be a new experience and definitely a lot of learning to change my
