study aboad

Hey guys, I was given offers for MPharm program at Universities in Ireland and I have a huge decision to make in a week when I must response to the offers and pay the deposits. I am a non-EU student (Vietnam) I'm in my last year of high school (IB) and I decided that I want to become a doctor...

Hello, International study is something incredibly important to me, and I would love to be able to do work/study abroad during medical school. I was wondering if anyone knew of the best medical school programs for this. I have found that Weill Cornell Medicine is very strong in this facet...

So to be clear, this is not a clinical/medical experience aboard. I am in Italy for two months and have been working in a food kitchen. I think I have escaped to woes of voluntourism because I am here for a long time and it is work I am qualified to do. In total, I will have worked 120 hours. I...

I'm currently a high school senior. So far I've only been looking at in-state colleges and potential future medical schools in the US so far. At one point I looked at a medical school overseas in Ireland but I quickly forgot about that as I was more focused on other things. Recently...

Some dental schools (i.g. UPenn and BU) have programs where you can go abroad. However, I was wondering if this is commonplace for dental schools or not. I checked one of the dental schools I'm interested in and they made no mention of international programs on their website. I've also heard of...

I'm curious about everyone else's experiences submitting transcripts when they studied abroad during their undergrad. I've been emailing AADSAS customer service and they seem to be giving me the run around without actually reading or answering my questions. The company through which I studied...

Hi guys, I found this awesome program at the University of Sussex through UC EAP where I can take 12 quarter credits (8 semester credits) of physics in 8 weeks. I was wondering if medical schools look down on completing premed prereqs abroad. Also, I was wondering if anyone has ever done this...

My school has a very cool program that lets us study language abroad and get university credits for it. I’m taking Spanish and am considering studying abroad for a semester but my concerns are that I have to discontinue my other activities... (Less volunteering/research hours) Any insights?

Hi everyone! I've been complaining about how I never learned Spanish in high school so I decided to finally do something about it so I don't ever have regrets. My first question is, do you/ someone you know have the experience of going from zero to fluent in a language you just started...

I'm currently a sophomore double majoring in molecular biology and public health with a language minor. I've been browsing SDN for some time and I've noticed that users have a large-mid range of clinical and research experience. I was wondering if studying abroad 3 times (prestigious summer...

Hi everyone, I am very fortunate to be accepted by a DO school as an international student but as time approaches to matriculation date, I am becoming more worried and stressed for leaving my mom alone with all the responsibilities while traveling abroad for a career I worked so hard for. If...

I've been trying to decide what to write about in my personal statement. The way I take it, this is the one portion of the application where I should stand out while explaining why I want to be a doctor. I want to write about a study abroad trip I took during my undergrad. Although the purpose...

Has anyone had any experience with the Atlantis Project pre-med fellowship? Or any premed fellowships abroad? I wanna do shadowing during the summer break and I'm curious if this might be a good opportunity for me.

I'm thinking of taking a language class abroad during the winter (January) of my senior year of college. I am applying on time at the end of my junior year. Do med schools typically conduct interviews during December/January, since this is holiday season and most students are on break? Do you...
