[quote=Anonymous]Are you looking to have her experience study abroad for like a semester or two, or actually be abroad for 3-4 years? Those are very different experiences. Also keep in mind the 'cheaper' European schools are usually cheaper for residents, not foreigners. Plus they want some IBs and your child pretty much needs to know exactly what they want to study, since they will be expected to graduate in 3 years. Plus they largely live in urban environments. There is more to say on this, but please do consider that just 'studying abroad' is not as simple as it may seem. Exposure to different cultures is a great idea, but maybe as a side to a US college experience our kids grew up thinking they would experience, versus a total 180 to live abroad. You definitely don't want to put your thumb on the scale in case it goes south, don't want her blaming you for pushing her to do one thing or another. [/quote]
