Studying Abroad

JhonCaves · 04-10-2008

Any of you ever done it? To where? How was it?

The Electron Zone · 04-10-2008

I studied a broad.

WTH do you mean?

JhonCaves · 04-10-2008

lol. I was going to make that joke.

...er...

abroad = in another country.

The Electron Zone · 04-10-2008

No but if I did I would go to Japan.

chimney_leaf · 04-10-2008

My third year of university is in Japan, I'm going in August for around 9-10 months. It'd be interesting to see if anyone else has been there.

Ranny · 04-10-2008

I haven't yet.

I do plan to go either next year or my junior year to either Segovia or somewhere in Argentina for some 400 level courses in spanish.

I would like to take some German classes in Germany.
Once I get my German up to a well enough level, I would like to take some classes in Germany.

For what? Lucky. =/

I have no money right now, and I have a feeling next semester's books are going to be killer.

JhonCaves · 04-11-2008

37,000 muthafuckin dollars.

=/
I got a scholarship.

Ranny · 04-11-2008

Yeah, that's the only way you can really go. =/

But WHY are you going? Studying Spanish?

**Crayne** · 04-11-2008

I haven't studied abroad before. USA, Britain, Australia and Germany are the only choices I would consider, really. The downside is that I don't have the money for it. And I probably won't be having enough money during my time of being a student of any sort.

I speak spanish pretty fluently, but I'm mainly doing it for the experience.

No scholarships?

**Crayne** · 04-11-2008

Haha, the only scholarship I know about is one that gets you to Åbo Akademi (a university in Turku, Finland), and a free apartment in Turku for as long as you study in said university.

And let this be known - I am NOT aiming at that scholarship. I mean, I would have to study in Swedish. I am not fond of that language, and I have not studied it that much for some time now.
