Spartan, I think people wish they’d studied abroad because after college, no matter what you majored in, you can’t just pick up and leave your life and job for 3 months which you’ll spend in another country, embracing another culture while still working towards your degree. The opportunity cost of doing so when you are in college is much, much less than it will be during your working prime (22 till 55+). The chance to spend that much time in a foreign country when you are young (let’s face it, partying it up in Barcelona just won’t be the same at 60 once you’ve retired).
