Gloupsidou 2,047 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'm trying to pick my last university for a semester abroad (Have to pick 3 out of the list) and I'm wondering if you guys could give me your opinion about that. I have the choice between: Sussex University (UK) York St John University (York, UK) Aarhus Universitet (Copenhage, Denmark) University of Regina (Saskatchewan, Canada) Arizona State University (US) Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville (US) Lynchburg College (VA state, US) Hobart and William Smith Colleges (Geneva, NY) University of Western Australia (Perth, Aus.) University of New England (Armidale, Aus.) Universidad de Leon (Spain) Universidad del Pais Vasco (Spain) Universidad de Tabasco (Mexico) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berserker46 61 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The U.S. is not worth considering unless you are finding work so i dont recommend it in your case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloupsidou 2,047 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 The U.S. is not worth considering unless you are finding work so i dont recommend it in your case. Well since I'm from Canada the only good point would be going back home during the semester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANTI-IKON 1,013 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Is Hobart and William Smith Colleges the same as the Smith college which is part of the seven sisters? Where do your interests lie and what you are looking to get out of the semester abroad? I could help you out more if you clarify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do your interests and what you are looking to get out of the semester abroad? Hobart is for men, William Smith is for women and they're in Geneva. The one you're talking about is in Massachusetts (the one linked to MIT and Harvard) looks good on my CV I wanna travel I can't deal with most dumbasses in my program I could also go to Harvard but $$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one you're talking about is in Massachusetts (the one linked to MIT and Harvard) looks good on my CV I wanna travel I can't deal with most dumbasses in my program I could also go to Harvard but $$$ First of all, you should apply to the programs which you have a higher of getting accepted to. Since you live in (?)/are from Canada, I would recommend arranging a trip to the US colleges in your list. Have you done that or thought about doing that? There are many factors to consider when planning to go a semester abroad. Out of the ones located in the US, I would recommend Arizona State University or Hobart and William Smith Colleges. Based on the countries alone, go with Australia or Denmark (if you dont mind freezing your ass off ). I heard Sussex is a great university. While the situation to find stable jobs here in the us is quite unfavorable, you are looking to stay for a semester only. I dont think thats important unless you think you would reconsider staying for a longer period or are planning to also get a job during the time you do stay.

I already freeze my ass off at a whopping -50C (last week) every year And if I have the highest grades in my year in my program so I'll get accepted into the program (those schools are all willing to accept us) Trust me on this one. Otherwise, northern Europe usually works out well for foreign students. But don't they speak English too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAYAKA 9,964 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If I were you, Australia would be in one of my choices I currently know two girls who are studying abroad there and have stated how great it is. Now I don't know much about Australian colleges/universities or anything. But Australia sounds really interesting to go study abroad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
