What's wrong with Scotland? Where would you recommend?

Hmmm, never go for a job in the tourist board KJ....

Mexico is a high option for me because I am semi-fluent in Spanish.

Still can't see the high attraction of it all to be honest. Unless of course it's what you really want.

KJ, English students studying in Scottish Uni's pay fees. It was the centrepoint of the Liberal Democrat education policy at the last election that thery would correct this flaw; it was in their election broadcast, and besides, I know a guy who has had to pay surrounded by those that don't.

Then again, as far as I know, it's not a matter of not having to pay fees, it's getting them deferred until later.

Anyway, plenty of fine education establishments in the UK (Oxbridge, Queens (Belfast), Imperial (London), Edinburgh, Bristol... others, too...), nearly all of them VERY keen to attract foreign students (and the ones that aren't, it's only because they are already full), so... certainly take the UK as a good option.

I think Scotland or Ireland would be fun...Mexico would be okay..but I think maybe Argentina or some other Souch American country would be better. I would have said Isreal..but with things going on there now it wouldn't be wise.

I guess the bottom line is where the best school for your course is. But then a pleasant locale would be an aid to study too I guess.

Anyone who decides their college/univercity based on the best beers or nightlife just isn't taking their education seriously, IMHO-OC

Well England's not too bad I suppose. Depends where you go. Personally I would advise going to stdy in london. That would be the best. Why is london the best? Well I will be there of course! No English city is complete without a resident witch! Yep I will be a freshman next year! So watch out London. My havoc is on it's way! Ooh havoc! I like that!

Don't wreak it TOO far out. SOme of us have to live near there.

Personally, I feel like if you're going to study abroad do it in a place that is not so familiar to you.

Dude, just go somehwere in Europe, that's the most beautiful continent in the world. Haven't been to the UK, but I'm sure it's just as beautiful. I would study in Italy, I love Florence! The chicks in Florence are soooo hot! I guess they have good schools there too 😄

Kinda making my point for me there Tex!!! 🙄

Ush I'm not sure what you said about fees is right. There is an English guy in my class and his fees are deffered the same as the rest of us even though on all his forms and applications he has to fill them in as a foreigner.

And the reason English and Welsh students were being classed as foreign was to stop them taking all the places. But I'm not sure now, what the rules are.

If you do come to Scotland then I'd pick Edinburgh.

These are all interesting opinions. Problem is that now I have even less of an idea where to go! 🙁

Get a map and a dart...

Yes, that does tend to be the case when you ask a question like this.

I applied to Edinburgh. They didn't want me. Just rejected me without interview. Oh well their loss!

They don't know what they are missing....

Hull its great....

Um personnally I'd say it is somewhat dependent on your budget and hat you want to study, find the uni that does the best course that may be used in he field you wish to work...

It would seem sencible to do that...
