Originally I was unsure of where I wanted to go for my exchange semester, but when I saw that UTS partnered with a university in Oxford, I knew I had to apply. Oxford Brookes University in the UK is a diverse university, both culturally and in its subject selection. I was easily able to find…

Expect lots of castles, lochs, pubs, kilts, ceilidhs and Munros (if you like) on exchange at Dundee. The design classes at Dundee are small but so caring! You’ll get your own desk and I was lucky enough to get the most welcoming advisor who helped make the most of my semester. I studied a narratives…

In all honesty, I had made arrangements for this program well in advance and felt as if everything had happened quite suddenly by the time I was…
