Ba Degree in 3 years

Start with a summer study abroad to find out?

Some may think that a BA degree
in 3 years means all work and no play. You'll find that is not the case.
Students at the University of Roehampton in London (roehampton.ac.uk) have a very active life outside the classroom.
Roehampton Students' Union motto is
*Student Life, Student Voice, and Student Support" and offers entertainment, sports, volunteering and other social activities on and off campus. They have a great web site along with a gallery of photos of their activities at: roehamptonstudent.com/

STUDY FOR A SUMMER ABROAD

Deciding to study abroad for the entire length of your college undergraduate or graduate degree is a big decision. It would be a little easier if students could sample the campus life at their top choice, wouldn't it? Well, you can do this by taking summer classes where you think you plan to study your full degree.

If there is a university abroad you are considering, search to see if they offer summer sessions and enroll in that to test-drive the campus life.
