Web-Based Communication
Students typically keep in touch with friends and family using web services at low or no cost. Apps like Google Hangout, Zoom, and Facetime are popular options.
WhatsApp is a very popular, free communication platform. Like other apps, it allows students to keep in touch with friends and family, via text and phone, using an internet connection. We strongly recommend that you download WhatsApp before going abroad, you’ll find it’s used a lot!
