Exchange Student
Do you know if it would be possible for me to go for my junior year to a european country? Im thinking Britain- since it would be difficult to learn french or another language well enough to be fluent to learn all my studies and get credit. Does anyone know of a program or anything? For those British people out there, do you ever have American people come in to your schools? I just really want to be an exchange student and get out of New york for one of my years..
Any sites? anything?

Re: Exchange Student
Personally i wouldn't right now. Americans have a VERY bad name right now thanks to our stupid leader. *shakes head* Americans are hated accross the world. so if you do, be ready to deal with a lot of bull shit.

Re: Exchange Student
I know that- thats one of the main reasons I wasn't going to go to France.. lol...probably get beaten up..
If you really do make fun of the american students, then whatever, i'll re-think it. It will be in 2 years... would that make any difference?

I did alot of information on this at one point.
Talk to you school guidence councler, they'll be the ones to really get the info for you.
Also, I don't know if you have one but our local rotary sends someone every year as an exchange student. Look that one up too.

Re: Exchange Student
Most schools have a program that you can look into about being an exchange student. Talk to your consuler!
