After reading the study abroad/graduate early post, I started thinking. I'm a junior at WashU and since I'm a transfer student, my options have been somewhat limited. I'm debating between applying to study abroad at University College London in Anthropology for fall 2007 or whether I should stay at WashU in the fall and write an honor's thesis. Writing the honor's thesis is the only way to graduate with Latin honors. I guess what I'm asking is what is more important to graduate schools: study abroad experience or an honor's thesis and Latin honors? Any thoughts or comments are appreciated.
