There's a surprise

I think the best way to work around this is to look at the study abroad options at other universities in addition to one's own. There are thousands out there and there is no reason to be restricted to a couple of dozen.

And can colleges get any lower than this type of sell-the-student-and-profit mentality? We are not an asset to be sold.
