You're not meant to drink escargot :P

Why are you going to France though?

I wanna do Erasmus to Galway!

Will

I ment drinking wne and eating escargot! :mad:
The idea of the erasmus is to go to a foreign country and attend college there. Learn a language and come back a better person basically
you cant do it in galway tbh, other foreign country

CuLT

roffle, ERASMUS in Galway.

F*ck, they may as well speak another language

gizmo

Meh, Galway is well over rated.

Anyway good luck with that Will, I'm sure you'll have a class time!

Amz

I'll look after gizmo while you're away Wilburt

StickyMcGinty

you'll have a good time will, but france is the hardest country in europe to study! its like going to secondary school over there. and the pass rate is 50% afaik

Don't know if this will help much but my sis went on erasmus to Japan for three months. Absolutely loved it. Decided to go back when she finished college cuz she loved it so much. She went with two friends who also had a fantastic time and one of them decided to stay on for the year cuz it was so much fun. I can put you in contact with her if it helps like

i thought erasmus was within the eu..

well thats what all the ads for it say. maybe she just went on an exchange or something.

*Shelly*

She was in TCD. it known as erasmus even outside the eu in TCD

rugbug86

those ker-azee tcd-ians

Will

As far as i know it under a diferrent name if you go outside the EU, however its basically the same and you get more of a grant ... cant be bad!
By the way anyone who is going on erasmus the meeting is next wednesday in the nursing building
