Past and present Corbett Scholars discussed the impact of the exchange program on their lives. Several shared that the program changed their feelings about living and working in another country, and a few chose a new path entirely after participating in the exchange.<\/p>\n

“I became really interested in the Art department at UW and took a painting course. Now I\u2019m looking forward to transitioning into a full-time artist and maybe working on bridging the art communities between Vancouver and Seattle! So, for sure this exchange has had a profound impact on my career and life. I feel really grateful to have had the chance. I\u2019m constantly thinking about returning to UW for a masters.\u201d \u2013 Amy Lu, UBC to UW 2019<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
