Student NGO's: You are invited to take part in a survey regarding Study Abroad. Please download the survey form and return it to the Study Abroad unit as quickly as possible.
Attention Students: The Academic Cooperation Association (ACA)Secretariat, Belgium, announces the launch of an online survey on perceptions of European higher education.
Why and how do students from non-European Union (EU) countries choose an international education, and how do they perceive European higher education? The survey targets non-European students who are thinking about an international education in an EU member state, in the United States, in Australia or elsewhere. Participating students can win one of many attractive prizes. The survey is accessible at www.aca-studentsurvey.org.
