My daughter is a science major and premed. Very tight getting everything in in 4 years anyway. She wants to do study abroad and I think it is a great idea (ok I am jealous as can be ). There is no way she can probably graduate in 4 years if she does a semester abroad but we are fine with her taking a bit longer in order to have that experience. How the classes work depends a lot on where you go and what classes are available. Her current thinking is either Australia (in which case I may stow away) where she would do mostly science classes that would count for her major or Ireland where she would do English Lit toward an English minor. Early days yet.

If you get the opportunity you should go for it.
