My daughter is first-year graduate in the sciences. Because she attended an LAC, she has a B.A., not a B.S., so I would answer that no, it doesn’t matter. If your daughter can swing a semester aboard, she should go for it since she won’t have this opportunity again.

But she must spend as much time at school and over the summer doing research if she wants to be a competitive applicant.
