sorry, I did not want to be giving you a onesided view through my opinion. I would say if you want more responses you could move the thread to the International student section maybe they can help you. A lot of international students in my school love travelling and most plan to be diplomats in their country so you would get a lot of response. in btw I am an inter
national student so not stereotyping anyone.

There are a thousand paths to diplomacy. Study anything you feel would be good for you maybe political science, economics or even physics. Be involved in activities that could enlighten you about different countries. Talk to your career advisor r about your future plans. Also your language experience would be valuable for making you reach the top- if it is a relevant language such as French, German, Mandarin, Arabic, Spanish or Russian and of course English- take internships on politics and international law...so many different paths so you make the choice. Also it depends on what school you are going to. If you need help with internships for next year, I could advise you next year but I would advise you again to pick a major you like and then take classes ouside it to learn about international affairs and read the economist or something.
