Studying abroad is something that many young South Africans have dreamed of. The myriad reasons for this dream are not hard to come by, of course. Unfortunately, neither are the obstacles. Brent Morris, the Managing Director of IE Abroad, studied in the UK - an experience which completely opened up his world and ignited his passion for the work that IE Abroad does - assisting those that would like to get their degrees abroad.
