Interview

How does studying abroad differ from studying at your home university?
For me the transition to classes has been the easiest part of studying abroad. The structure is similar and oftentimes other students in English courses are other exchange students who are in the same situation as you.
Could you tell us how your courses were accredited?
There are pre-approved courses which count as equivalents to Cal Poly classes. In addition there are course approval forms which allow you to request credit for a GE course with a course you took abroad. It’s important to request substitutions as early as possible.
What was the highlight of your semester abroad?
Going out with other students to bars or to explore the town. Students who go on international exchanges obviously like to get out, so it hasn’t been hard to find some people who would want to go out.
