A Guide to High School Programs Abroad in North America
Locations
Although some definitions of North America are expanded to include the island countries of the Caribbean Region, most measures designate the continent as encompassing just the countries of Mexico, the United States, and Canada.
Mexico, the southernmost nation on the continent, stands out as a distinct destination because it is the only one of these three which is technically also part of Latin America. Therefore much different culturally than its heavily industrialized Western neighbors, Mexico will prove a very enriching location where to land through a high school program in North America.
One step to the north, The United States is typically the most popular destination for high school programs in North America because of its pre-eminence on many fronts of the global stage. Embarking on a high school program in the United States will enable you to experience a whole new side of the world superpower, debunking many preconceptions you may have developed from its portrayal in media and popular culture.
Canada, the northernmost country on the continent, can also be a great place where to enroll in a high school program in North America. Although Canada is the second largest country in the world by land area, it is actually home to a relatively small population of just 35 million inhabitants. Nonetheless Canada has a very powerful economy and also measures very highly on most measures of human development and social equality; a great model to learn from for high school students abroad.
