Hello All!!
My name is Ariana O'Neal and I am currently a Sophomore at Grand Valley State University. I am majoring in International Business with a minor in French and a wish of someday being able to work at a job that will allow me to experience more of our vast world.

As a part of my International Business program, I am required to study or intern abroad. My prayer is to make enough money to help fund a semester study abroad in Angers, France at the ESSCA school of Management. I have been learning French for the past 7 years and I would consider myself to be quite proficient in the reading and writing portion of the language however, I have some trouble with the speaking and pronunciation part.
So far, in order to pay for school I have taken out some loans and had some help from my dad. Both have been a blessing so that I may get the education that I need. However, with my dad supporting me, my older brother and my younger sister, I want/need to lighten the financial burden from him. For this reason I have started this GoFundMe page.

 

Total Projected Cost for the semester program: $12,381 - $14,271 (per semester based on 2015-2016)

Includes

·        GVSU Tuition

·        Airfare

·        Housing

·        Books & Supplies

·        Passport/Visa

·        Meals

·        Health Insurance/ISIC

·        Living Expenses

 

I plan on applying for the Winter semester of 2018.

I would be so grateful to everyone who contributes to this fund. I would just like to say thank you so much for sowing a seed into my life, for it is truly a blessing.

Thank you all for your time, consideration, and help.

Ariana O’Neal
