University Student Exchange - Help me pick a university/country (10pts)?

I did a program in Scotland(Aberdeen) and cousin did one in Australia (Univ of NSW)--both were great...I visited my cousin there. Courses are different than in US so be sure to study as well as have fun. Things to look at--is the program integrated into the normal university or is it separate (someone I knew went to one and his classes were separate from the regular Univ classes so it was more difficult to get to know regular students.) Do you get homesick? some students did and found it hard (not all of them had previously had any problems with homesickness in the US) Make sure that your work will be accepted by your home university before you go and what classes they might not accept--some students had problems with this upon their return. good luck
