How
far
I
will
go
Co-op
opens
up
many
doors,
like
the
opportunity
to
travel
and
pursue
international
experiences.
Co-op
gives
me
the
opportunity
to
become
a
globe-trotter.
However,
one
concern
I
had,
was
if
I
do
work
internationally
for
a
co-op
term,
would
I
be
spending
all
my
time
working?
So
there
would
be
no
point
working
in
another
country
if
I
do
not
even
get
to
explore
it. After
talking
to
a
current
student
at
UW,
who
has
done
an
international
co-op
work
term
before,
I
now
believe
that
international
co-op
work
terms
are
great
to
gain
work
experience
and
explore
new
countries.
A
university
student
could
do
some
travelling
and
exploring
as
you
would
have
the
evenings
and
weekends
free.
Along
with
the
fact
that
you
get
to
travel,
each
student
has
a
Co-operative
and
Experiential
Education
(CEE)
advisor,
who
is
there
to
provide
support
for
you
throughout
your
co-op
work
term.
If
you
are
like
me
and
worried
about
trying
to
find
a
place
to
live
in
another
country,
do
not
worry.
Many
employers
help
you
with
finding
places
to
stay.
University
of
Waterloo
students
who
have
previously
worked
abroad
may
also
be
able
to
offer
you
helpful
suggestions.
Keep
in
mind
that
they
are
only
suggestions
and
you
are
still
responsible
to
arrange
your
own
travel,
like
work/study
permits,
passport,
employment
contract,
plane
tickets,
etc.
You
also
need
to
find
housing
and
pay
for
your
own
moving
costs.
I
would
recommend
looking
into
international
co-op
opportunities
if
you
are
like
me
and
want
to
travel.
Just
make
sure
you
do
your
research
and
look
into
these
opportunities
early
because
it
can
take
up
to
8
months
to
make
all
your
arrangements
and
have
the
right
paperwork
(i.e.
work/study
permits).
