… and they’re all about class registration<\/p>\n
This post will be a short one, simply reflecting on my study abroad process.<\/p>\n
I started doing research in\u00a0early March 2014. There were requirements, times, regulations and other logistical information to confirm in order to successfully adhere to\u00a0applications, deadlines, requirements, etc.<\/p>\n
Also, I am temporarily enrolled in another school connected to LUC through another institution. That’s three different people that need to say yes to each step I take in this process.<\/p>\n
Everyone did their best to step up and answer my questions, but as life goes, there were some mistakes made along the way.<\/p>\n
From communication, misinformation, a rejection here and there, and need for correction here and there, postponed elaborating (that means I was told too late) and more, confusion about my classes and registration – which wasn’t complete until the middle of October or the second week of classes – was aplenty.<\/p>\n
This was the case for many of my peers studying abroad. There was frustration, but eventually\u00a0all worked out. We were able to make peace and finally enjoy our time. I would simply say to any future study abrad-ers to not expect things to be perfect and clear upon arrival.<\/p>\n
Things will get lost in translation even if you speak the same language. I wish someone told me that.<\/p>\n
Until next time,<\/p>\n
