DS has just finished 2nd of 4 year Uni course and hopefully will be studying abroad in Europe next semester (course taught in English). He's been put forward by home uni but not yet done any of the other admin (not his forte). He'll need a visa and to sort accommodation.
Anyone else got experience of DC studying abroad for a single semester or longer, and what would your learning points/top tips be?
I'm wondering might it be worth the time/money to do a language course in the summer? He doesn't speak the local language and it might be nice to make basic conversation. Or better to just figure it out once there?
