Academic
Course recommendations
the less students there are in the program, the less classes there are available to choose from, so while the size of the program was a strength in terms of being able to become friends with everyone in it, it was a hindrance academically.

It was not legal for me to work
Personal spending habits
I didn't tend to go out much at home, so the fact that I have more of a social life here also means I spend more money. The phone bill also adds up. At home, my cell phone was emergency purposes only, and here my cell is the only phone I have so it gets used a lot!
