[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG I am bumping this because trolls hijacked this- My son wants to study in the UK and I would like to hear from people who actually have kids studying there not hear why it sucks.[/quote] I went to University in England (I was born there). You are completely treated like a fully responsible adult from the first day. There are no house parents, there are no older students to guide you. You are literally on your own. And you have to remember to hand stuff in - no one will tell you if work is missing, they'll just fail you. any other questions?[/quote] I know a kid who’s starting there and I think he’s getting a lot gentler experience than that. My son is in the Netherlands, and his university has a long introductory program this year. Programs that take in a lot of international kids now may have discovered a little orientating maximizes tuition stream retention. [/quote]
