University of Edinburgh is Fantastic Past Review
By Keith H (Arts, Entertainment,and Media Management., SUNY Purchase) for
University of Edinburgh: Edinburgh - Direct Enrollment & Exchange
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
The University of Edinburgh provided a great experience by allowing you to determine what you wished to do while abroad. You were allowed to be as involved or uninvolved in the University activities and they put you in housing with local students. My involvement in this experience has certainly changed my perspective on life, America, and education.
