| Study Abroad forum?
I think a subforum for students studying abroad would be a good idea. I've seen a couple people on here who've wanted to see one. True, one could post in their individual college's forum, but many colleges aren't on CC. Plus, it could serve to educate users on what study abroad entails. |

| No, actually, I was reading a thread in the parent's forum and some of the posters wished there was a separate forum for studying abroad topics and questions.
Maybe when I go to college. | |

| Study Abroad forum?
Since my thread in the Forum Issues section isn't getting any attention by the mods, I thought reposting here might be good.

| AS the parent of a rising soph, I would be interested in hearing about study abroad experiences from current students. Son has expressed some interest in study abroad and has received info from his school about a program in London. But given the recent terror threats, we were discouraged by it. | |

| but I recall seeing a few american students posting there about their study abroad experiences and stuff...
but I guess devoting a small forum for it would be a good idea... | |

| yeah, study abroad is a very different topic from being an international student. I'll be studying abroad in two years, it would be a great way to help keep me around longer!
I really do think it's one of snoopy's better ideas. | |
