<p>i like almost everything about cornell and am seriously considering to ED there... except i really really want to study abroad and i was very worried when one of their brochures said that "over 500 students study abroad each year" .. and cornell has over 13,000 undergrads or roughly around there right? that seems like an incredibly minuscule percentage that shows me that it's either incredibly competitive or the program isn't designed well.. i'm mostly interested in studying abroad to either england or japan (japan being my first choice for learning japanese). i did some research on their falcon program but again, i couldn't find any info on how competitive/accessible these programs are and if financial aid is transferable.. </p>
<p>soo does anybody know about cornell study abroad?</p>
<p>and also georgetown.. i'll apply there EA if i don't do cornell ED and it seems that their FLL program is really set up well for study abroads.. can anyone comment on georgetown's FLL?</p>
<p>i'm mostly interested in majoring in english and japanese, possibly philosophy.</p>
<p>sorry, i guess my question came a bit off as "im choosing my school based on its study abroad options"..</p>
<p>i've already narrowed me list down to ~10 and study abroad is one of a few options that'd i'd like to have open to me as an undergrad.. and besides, gtown and cornell both offer a lot for four years and i was just wondering how their study abroad was. thanks for the tip though</p>
<p>Proud my d is at Cornell and did a Study Abroad Program. Cornell is pretty liberal in allowing you to pick your study abroad experience of choice. please check their web site for "cu study abroad" they have over 100 + programs to pick from- You can do them through other college programs (my d did Florence through the Wells college program) or through study abroad organizations like CIEE or other such companies. Each college at Cornell has a Study Abroad advisor- you do need to get approval- but as they list a high amount of different programs on their own website, they seem to haVE ALOT OF FLEXIBILITY</p>
<p>I'm in the FLL at Georgetown (Linguistics and Spanish), and the study abroad programs are great and really accessible. I'd say at least half of the junior class studies abroad for at least a semester, and if not, pretty much everyone else does a summer program. Tuition is the same as what it would be to stay on campus, and the financial aid transfers 100%. There is a lot of information on Georgetown's Office of International Programs (oip dot georgetown dot edu).</p>
