An Intense Educational Opportunity Past Review
By A student (Wellesley College) - abroad from 09/09/2019 to 12/07/2019 with
University of Oxford - Visiting Students
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
I was able to take graduate level courses and learned a lot. There weren't a lot of academic resources available since the tutorial system encourages self-teaching and there are fewer resources online for grad level courses. However, it was nice to be able to take classes covering content not typically covered in undergrad courses.

|
* What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? | I wish I had realized that the tutorial system seems better adapted to the humanities rather than STEM and had chosen to take humanities classes instead of STEM ones. |
