<p>I thought it would be fun to talk about something other than early decision notification.... haha</p>
<p>Part of the reason why I'm applying to NYU is because they have the best best best study abroad program and they encourage it so much. I want to major in something with languages and culture (Gallatin here) and so it works out really well for me. </p>
<p>I decided we should talk about whether we plan to take advantage of NYU's great study abroad program or if we've ever done something like it before.</p>
<p>I'll go first. Summer after sophomore year I studied French in France, which totally turned me on to the idea of living in a different country, especially solo. I'm graduating in two weeks and then heading off to Brazil for the semester! If i get into NYU, i probably want to spend a semester in Germany.</p>
<p>Thanks for distracting us from the decision Calimarc, this waiting thing is killing me. </p>
<p>I have never studied abroad, but I have done community service trips abroad, and I travel out side of the country alot. That is so awesome that you get to spend your last semester of HS abroad. I wanted to do something like that, but my school isnt very flexible. (and my parents are cheap)</p>
<p>I will totally take advantage of study abroad, even if I dont end up at NYU. I want to spend a semester in Israel and a semester in London. I also want to do an internship abroad one summer, because I want to live abroad after college. I like the NYU study abroad program because all of the classes are taught in English, so I dont have to worry about getting really confused. One of the reasons why I applied ED to NYU was the strong study abroad program. My cousin is a senior at NYU, and she just came back from spending the year in Italy, and she loved it. I have been told that it is actually cheaper to study abroad at NYU than it is to study in NY.</p>
<p>oh man brazil!! I hope you have an amazing time there..I have been dying to travel to South America, especially Buenos Aires. If I get into NYU, I'm definitely studying abroad either there or in Madrid..i wanna either major or minor in Spanish so that would work out.</p>
<p>The only time I've been out of the country was this past summer studying in Madrid for three weeks..it was not nearly enough lol..I loved it so much.</p>
<p>Yeah Study Aboard's a big part of my NYU plan too. If I get in, I hope to travel to Britain and do the semester long film program with BBC! It sounds really cool. The film program in Prague sounds good too, I want to do both. Probably one junior year and one senior year, since freshman and sophmore year there's not much time for film majors. </p>
<p>Also want to do a summer session in Tisch Asia at Singapore. :)</p>
<p>If I get in I know that I definitely want to spend a semester in London, I love it there :). I also want to do a semester in Paris if possible. I love how amazing NYU's study abroad program is, I can't wait to take advantage of it if I get in!</p>
