Hey, I plan on studying abroad for the Spring ’06 Semester, and I have a question to ask of any American students who has studied abroad in London.
My school offers a variety of options for studying in London. The option I plan on taking up is the “Semester-in-London” program. Basically, three to five professors from my home school take a group of around 45-50 students to study in London for the semester. All credits count towards your major requirements, unlike other London programs offered where the credits would only transfer.
The down side, obviously, is I will not be completely immersed in the cultural aspects of going to a British University. As such, I will be taught by American professors from my home school and also will be housed with American students from my home university.
The cost is far cheaper than the other programs, and the academic calendar is the same as most American schools; i.e, not on the slightly longer British system.
I’m seeking opinions from people who have studied abroad before, or maybe even participated in a program like this before and have some insight/advice.
Thanks,
