Review Your Program
|
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
Workload and grading system was very similar to the American system, but the teacher had a different lecturing style, but that can most likely be attributed to the fact that I had never taken a Cinema course before. |

* Host Country Program Administration
On-site administration of your program |
Very accessible and were willing to help in any way possible. |

How satisfied were you with your living arrangements? |
