Which 3rd party provider did you use?
- Globalinks
- AustraLearn
- AsiaLearn
- EuroLearn
- CISabroad
- ISEP (International Student Exchange Programs)
- UConn
Some PROS of 3rd party providers is that if you go through one of the above groups, they are approved by ECSU, which means your financial aid will apply! Also, they will help you with the application process at the foreign university, they can help you register for classes overseas, and most offer some “perks” while abroad (cultural trips, cell phone, etc.) You also have a lot of variety in the locations and universities you can choose.
A CON is that they are more expensive.
