Does studying abroad help an application, and if so by how much?

<p>I would make every effort to do the year. It’s a great time. The Oxbridge colleges are small with numbers of undergraduates between 250 and 450 on average. I believe Williams sends a lot of students to one Oxford college but otherwise there seems to be room for only a few students each year from a small group of US colleges. The person in charge of your college study abroad program would know the fine details.</p>
