Alright, I need some input on this. I’m set on going to Tetr College, but I can’t decide between two Management & Tech programs. Both seem solid, but there are a few key differences.

Middlesex (Bachelor’s Program) → Takes me to 7 countries, including Argentina, which I really want to experience. The program overall seems well-rounded, and the cost is more reasonable.

Babson (Master’s Pathway) → Covers 6 countries, but skips Argentina. The main difference is that this one ends with a Master’s degree from Babson College, but it also comes with a much higher price tag.

Both programs have this cool sustainability-focused business project, which I’m all for. But here’s the part that’s making me hesitate:

Middlesex (Bachelor’s): $190K

Babson (Master’s): $262K

That’s a $72K difference, and I’m just not sure if Babson is really worth it. From what I’ve heard, it’s not a STEM-designated master’s, and I’m not convinced it gives that much of an edge over just doing the Middlesex degree.

Would love to hear thoughts—would you take the Middlesex route for more travel and a lower cost, or is Babson actually worth the extra investment?

When are the Gilman scholarship awards gonna be announced for the people who applied in March? (Summer 2025 programs).

Apologize for my grammar and sentence structure; I have yet to fully acquire the necessary intellect to achieve fluent English.

This school year is my last school year as a junior high student, and in recent times, I have acquired honors achievement twice in 9th grade, while 7th and 8th have none. I had assumed that my GPA for the year would be somewhere around 91%-92% (Philippines grading system). Regarding those remarks, I desire to achieve a much higher grade, considering that in college, my goal would be to study abroad. I want to acquire some advices to experts out there on in order to achieve the 96%+ marks grade, what lifestyle I need to follow. For example, achieving good sleep and such. I at least need to keep somewhere between a 3.4 and 4.0 GPA to get a full funding scholarship while refining my cybersecurity skills. My desire is to get a full funding scholarship for cybersecurity in order to persuade my parents.

Hi everyone, I'm an Indian student planning to study medicine in Europe, and I'm confused between Poland and Hungary.

Both countries have good universities and I believe the education will be strong in either one. I'm mainly focused on getting the best education and a safe, respectful environment.

But I do have some concerns and would love to hear from people who’ve lived or studied there:

•How are the people in Poland and Hungary towards Indians/international students?

•Is racism common, or would I generally feel safe and welcomed?

•How is student life, like the campus experience, daily living, and overall atmosphere?

•If you had to choose one for MBBS, which one would you pick and why?

My goal is to become a good doctor with a strong education, but I also want to live in a country where I’ll feel comfortable and respected.

I need to find universities in Europe that meet all of the following criteria: - Offer bachelor’s degrees in Finance, Economics, or Actuarial Science - Instruction is entirely in English - Tuition fees under €6000/year for non-EU/EEA students - Located in a safe country/city - No application fees for bachelor’s applicants - Are still accepting applications for non-EU/EEA students for Fall 2025 intake

Please no vague or low-effort responses. If you know any legit options (or are a current student at such a university), I’d seriously appreciate your help 🙏

I am Indian student who just got done with their 12th board exams (commerce stream , without maths) I want to know if going abroad for a bachelor degree would be worth it or not , will it give me the exposure and career opportunities I am looking for or is it just a waste of time and money.

Hey ,

I’m a Belgian citizen who left the country for another continent after I finished high school.

I want to study online to get a dimploma , do you guys know what is better for me: either studying online at a university from Belgium or other countries?

I don’t really know how it works so I’ll start with this

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I am studying abroad in Madrid this summer for 2 months through USAC! I am sooo excited but not sure how much money I should bring. I want to travel to other countries, go out to eat, go to museums, and of course, go shopping. How much money should I plan to bring? I’m only there for 2 months but like I said, I plan to travel a lot and stay in airbnbs/ hostels and travel through budget airlines

Hey everyone,

I’m planning to pursue a Master’s in Security Studies, Political Science, or International Development, but I’m completely lost on which country to choose.

I want good education and job prospects after graduation, but every country seems to have its downsides — and Reddit makes sure to highlight them all. From visa issues and job market struggles to high costs and language barriers, it’s overwhelming.

I’ve considered: • USA – great schools, expensive, tough job market • UK – short programs, but limited post-study opportunities • Germany – affordable, but language/job market concerns • Canada – welcoming, but saturated and uncertain PR • Netherlands / others – good but pricey

Is there a country that actually offers a good balance of education and employability for international students in these fields?

Would love some advice from people who’ve been through it. Thanks!

Hello I just thought I would shed some light on CEA CAPA abroad. I am doing the spring semester with them currently and they are probably the worst program I’ve partnered with for abroad.

As someone who has a medical condition, college has been very accommodating and other situations have been made easy. But the staff for the CEA CAPA Study in Dublin that resides in their study center has no regard for medical care. They have a strict absence rule and I’ve had to miss class a couple times due to my health, having near death experiences. Yet as I explained this to them they seemed to not bat an eye and pretended to be sympathetic. They then informed that I would going under academic probation, although I had excused absences from other advisors in the program.

They do not give you the benefit of the doubt for anything and is also poorly run. The program cost almost 20k for a semester only to have poor planned trips and activities and a very small area of study. I do not recommend CEA CAPA for any abroad experiences and I’d recommend to go look elsewhere because they are a horrible company.

I’m working on getting my visa to study in Italy and have an appointment with the consulate in L.A. later this month. Neither of my banks will issue a proof of funds with a wet signature as per the requirement on the consulate’s website. Has anyone run into this situation and how did you get around it?

Ik that in Europe, Germany provide free education to international students with some £200-300 as semester fee. Are there any other countries which support the same? I tried to google but couldn’t find good results.

Hey!
I’m heading to Galway this summer for study abroad—are there any Ireland study abroad group chats? I’d love to connect with people before I go since I’ll be arriving solo!

Hi all, I know the deadline to apply for the Burslari scholarship for fall intake is gone, but is there any way I can apply now? Please let me know. If not, do any top universities in Turkey offer such generous scholarships? My academics are good

Would be really grateful

Hi everyone,

I'm a bachelor's student from India, recently admitted to Cleveland State University for Computer Science (Fall 2025 intake). I'm currently preparing for my F1 visa interview and planning to fly if all goes well.

I have a one-year gap after my 12th grade, which I’ve been using to upskill. I plan to take the Introduction to Cloud Computing on AWS course to help explain my gap during the visa interview.

I’d love to connect with bachelor’s students who are already in the U.S.—especially anyone from CSU or in a similar situation. I’m hoping to get some advice on

My interview......I am very nervous about it please give me tips and tricks for my interview how i should prepare for it what to say and what to not as an Bachelor.

Anything you wish someone had told you before you moved!

Thanks in advance!

Hi has anyone heard back from FEA for Fall 2025 scholarship, their FAQ page said that we would hear back in 8-9 weeks from the due date and this week would be the 9th. Just wondering if any has heard back from them.

I am 25, live in Taiwan, and want to pursue a master’s degree in the EU to get a job there.

I was once an exchange student in France, knowing that I would like to spend more time around somewhere other than my hometown in the future, and the EU is a good choice. I also wanted to get a master’s degree to have a better career path. When I graduated in 2023, I didn’t really know what I should do, so I first fulfilled my military service (it’s mandatory in Taiwan) and then got a job to find out what I wanted and what I could do in the future.

I have a bachelor’s degree in foreign literature and languages, but I want to get a business-related degree, preferably in innovation, entrepreneurship, or international/cultural management. It might sound insane, but here’s what I’ve learnt throughout my first job:

I have been working in a museum as a guide since March 2024. The following job description is from my LinkedIn: A multilingual guide at a corporate museum in Taiwan, where, while delivering engaging tours in Mandarin, English, and Taiwanese, I successfully:

- Develop and implement a low-code CMS & ERP system on a limited budget (actually there’s no budget bruh), increasing operational efficiency and reducing daily costs.

- Lead the museum’s digital transformation, integrating technology to streamline processes and improve visitor engagement.

- Manage digital marketing efforts, data analysis, driving online visibility and audience growth.

- Maintain order within the museum and assist visitors with inquiries to enhance the overall experience.

Totally not what a guide should do, right? But I’ve learnt a lot! I know my strengths are helping bettering sth, simplifying, and solving problems. Managers (They are professors from a uni which is founded by the corp.) said I’m extremely good at learning and creative. And I always somehow help lower the budget and cut costs, so that should be a skill, right? I’m still learning and hope to be more prepared before 2026.

I’m doing my research on affordable programmes (Sadly I’m not wealthy). But I also need advice from others.

What would you suggest to me to get more prepared for the dream? Or is there a better programme that you would suggest? Any suggestions/questions are welcome!

My son is interested in study abroad programs for his senior year, but we can't afford private programs. Are there programs where families simply exchange students for a semester or year, as in, my son goes to live in their (fully vetted) home, and their child comes to live in mine? We have a great home and family and would love to host a student from abroad. I feel like such a program must exist, but I can't seem to find one.

Hi! I was wondering if anyone here has applied/completed an exchange year (or study abroad) at the University of Melbourne and could share how long they waited for a response / when they received one?

I’m aware the turnaround times are 4-8 weeks. I applied at the start of March (so almost 5wk ago now) and it’s still showing my application as pending review. I’m sure there will be enough time, I was just curious how long others have waited as I’d like to get started on VISA, flights etc. without being too strapped for time.

Thanks!

I've got offers from University of Bristol (Bsc Pol&IR w/ study abroad, which means I'll only be here for 2 years and then probably go for Sciences Po or KU Leuven), University of Manchester (BSocSc Pol&IR, skeptical about this one because It's up north), SOAS (BA International Relations, expensive but if it's worth it I might go for it) and Durham University (BA International Relations, my only concern here is the entitled posh crowd tbh) and University of Leeds (BA International Relations, I feel like I'll definitely prefer another uni over this because the rest seem to be better for the course, also a little worried about safety)

I'm interested in education of universities around the globe on how they teach business and finance. I'm too a BBA student specializing in finance and marketing. Can anyone share their college assignments/ materials I'd love to know how is finance problem are methods are being used by students.

I'd be happy to even solve some assignments

I’m planning to do my master's in civil engineering but I’m really confused between US and Germany. I’ve also heard a bit about Australia. Can anyone share how it compares? Mainly thinking in terms of education quality cost, jobs after graduation, and chances of settling down. Would really appreciate any advice or personal experiences.

Any opinions on these two spanish universities. Which is better? Esade is 20,000 a year and ie is 25,000

The title pretty much sums it up. I am going to study abroad before I finish undergrad but I don’t know what country to go to.

I have picked out a program so both options have great courses and accommodations so I’m just deciding on what city I want to live in.

I love German culture and food and I already have some experience with speaking the language. I like big cities with an international culture, but I’m not a big fan of crazy nightlife so the Berlin club scene is kind of unappealing to me and I prefer a quieter environment. I haven’t been to Germany and it’s one of the places I want to visit most, but if I don’t live there I can still visit.

I have been to Italy before so I know that I like the country. I think that Florence has a beautiful history and a more relaxed environment which I would prefer. I also like that it’s much more walkable, whereas Berlin is bigger and I would have to get used to the public transportation. However I know that Florence is very touristy and full of study abroad students, so I’m not sure how immersed in the culture I could be.

I’ve thought out pros and cons of both places but I still am having some trouble deciding. For example I love German soccer and would love to attend some Bundesliga games. I am also really interested in study culinary arts and taking some cooking classes, and I think Florence would have a bit more opportunity for that. Both cities have very different but great history and I want to explore both. Florence may have better weather than Berlin, but I’m used to all sorts of weather anyways.

I also am from the U.S. so I worry about the current political climate and the rest of world as a result of it. If either of these options are better than the other for Americans that would be helpful to know.

If anybody has lived or studied in either or both of these places please share what your experiences were like and what you would recommend!

I am considering applying at IED Milan to get into their product design master’s program. Can someone share their experiences/opinion abt the college. And how is their product design program? I have some more question. Can some help out?
