ERASMUS

Hi,
Unfortunately i missed the study abroad fair and I was just wondering is there anywhere I could go to find out about my options for studying abroad?

Also is there anyone here who has gone on Erasmus? If so, how did you find the experience? What were the advantages and disadvantages of it would you say?

I'm doing Spanish at the moment and I was just wondering roughly how many would study abroad each year? Would it be the majority of the year or only a handful?
Also does anyone know the deadline for applying to to study abroad?

With regard to studying in Spain, are there some universities which are more popular than others to study in? Also does anyone know if you have to pay the Spanish university fee or the nuim one or both?

Any help or info would be much appreciated

Go to the international office on the top floor of humanity house!
They'll sort you out.

Daughter is currently on Erasmus here in Northern Spain; she is also doing Spanish. Some more information on it here.

Some general information here on Erasmus.

I think the consus from most people is that it is advantageous to do it.

Hi!! i'm currently on erasmus in santiago de compostela so hopefully i can help:) if your looking for information your best bet is to contact the international department in your university and also in the hispanic department there should be a co-ordinator who can provide you with lots of information.
Currently there are seven of us including myself in Santiago but in the other Spanish Universities theres is about five in each from my college. Also in terms of deadline you probably want have everything sorted in February/March. You just pay the fee to your own University.

Here is a link to a facebook page which has a number of members who have been on Erasmus. You can post your questions on the page.
