Study Abroad anyone?

[BeautifulChange]

hey all.

I'll be a junior this fall I and plan to do study abroad in the spring. Has anyone studied overseas (or inland)? If so, how was it? Any advice, warnings, recommendations?

Well, really this is for anyone interested in studying abroad in general. All welcomed.

I'm not exactly studying abroad but working in the UK as part of my English degree right now....

the tip they gave us at Uni was to NOT just hang out with the other foreign students but to get involved into the culture of the country you're in - making friends with locals instead of with the other exchange students (though you of course can do that as well)....guess that tip is mostly for language practise since students from my country tend to hang out with other german speakers when studying in the UK or US
