I want to go to greece and be an exchange student or something my senior year help!?

Question

i want to go to college in greece. would studying abroad at a greek high school my senior year look good on my transcript? anyone have any info on studying abroad for the school year?

Answer 1

Well, if you study abroad your senior year then you will already be in Greece. You will get your hs diploma there so it will be easier to go to college since you are already there. I am doing the same thing only I am going to Germany.

Answer 2

Yeah, studying abroad your senior year will look good on your transcript, for some schools. But don't you already send in your application for colleges beginning of your senior year? If you can do it sooner, it would probaly look better. But either way, still do the exchange!

The only program that I know of that offers a year program to Greece is YFU. Here is their website: http://www.yfu-usa.org/

The Greece program is a new one for them, so they don't have the information on it yet, but if you email them, they will tell you about it.

If your considering going with any other programs here are some other ones, but they don't offer Greece.
