<p>Seeing as thousands of people attend LSE for more than a year, it can’t be that bad.</p>

<p>Correct me if I’m wrong, but as far as I can tell, you basically want to go to Europe, do some sightseeing, and return to college in the US. While LSE is generally accommodating of American students (by which I mean that the JYA program is a very watered-down version of the real thing), it does expect them to do some work while they’re there.</p>
<p>If your only desire is to “experience the culture,” I suggest you do so outside of school.</p>
