Erasmus/Study Abroad

SoSueMe

I'm a first year BBS and Japanese student and as soon as I return to UL next week I plan on looking into erasmus/study abroad.

I just wanted to know people's experiences with the program.

I have proposed an Erasmus forum in the Forums forum, please support it

i'm just back from erasmus and i loved it it was such a brilliant experience...may have failed a couple of exams(should really get around to seein what hapens now)but it was brilliant get to meet so many people from different places.. our one was part of our course so it was pretty straight forward decide where you want to go if there's there's places left there you just sign a few papers then sign a few more for the university you're goin to and you're off..would recommend everyone to do it in college..

I'm in 3rd year is Eramus off the cards for me?

Your best bet would be to talk to the international office at your college. There are plenty of courses that have the option of studying abroad and afaik, everyone is entitled to avail of the Erasmus programme. It might mean you'd have to take a year out though. I went to Germany on Erasmus last year and loved it so much that I decided to take a year out and go to Spain. It's definitely worth doing and is essential if your degree incorporates foreign languages.

Thanks very much for that.
