Need some help in Paris? Read this

Hi,





i%26#39;m alex, i%26#39;m living in Paris, France. If you%26#39;re looking for any information, i%26#39;ll be pleased to help you.





And, why not having some kind of %26quot;exchange%26quot;. I%26#39;m currently student and i%26#39;m thinking of going in the US to study.





You can answer me on this forum or contact me directly by email or msn:

Hi Alex! Have you thought about where you might want to study here in the U.S. ? Come on down to Univesity of Miami here if you are looking for fun and nearby beaches (and I%26#39;LL show YOU around! :o) ), or try an Ivy League school (top notch academics) like Harvard, Yale, Columbia (in New York City!), or University of Pennsylvania (where I went!), or a gorgeous small womens%26#39; college in the very posh Virginia horse country, like Sweet Briar www.sbc.edu, where I spent my first two college years, and where they also have a well known and highly touted exchange program with a year in Paris, I believe at the Sorbonne. http://www.jyf.sbc.edu/ Alternatively, you may enjoy the California exoerience...there is Stanford (excellent academics), and UCLA (right in Los Angeles). Let me know if I can help at all with your decision.



Regards, El

hey el :)





thanks for your help, i%26#39;ve already been to UCLA, for a basketball camp during summer. It was gorgeous :)



But, i%26#39;ve never been to miami, i must to go, i think it%26#39;s also a nice city to live. For the Universities, i must choose a good one but there%26#39;re some problems about the prices, finding a place to stay, i think it%26#39;s quite expensive...



I%26#39;m studying %26quot;data processing%26quot; and i%26#39;d like to improve myself in marketing or management, a kind of last year specialisation.



The 2 options are to go by myself or use the ERASMUS exchange.





It%26#39;s quite difficult to choose which way is the best. I think the best idea is to come and see american universities directly and speak with the %26quot;boss%26quot; lol :) (i don%26#39;t know how to call him)

you rpobably want to speak with the %26quot;Director of Admissions%26quot; or if the school has a set up exchange program like Sweet Briar%26#39;s, there is probably a direcotr of the program. Check out the website I sent you for Sweet Briar...you can%26#39;t find a more GORGEOUS spot. However for management or exposure to business (and also great on your resume for job hunting), you cannot beat the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. I have an MBA from there, but their undergraduate program is just as impressive in the job market. Wharton is a division of the University of Pennsylvania, in Phildalphia, a large Ive League University. I%26#39;m certain that they have set up exchange programs as well. check out http://www.upenn.edu/



As far as what I would choose, I guess I would choose Harvard, because it is the #1 university in the U.S., it is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts (right near LOTS of other great universities and colleges), and their business school is tops too, but I am not sure that they have a well known undergraduate business program like Wharton does.
