Final comments

I am trying to apply for internship but could not access to proper information sites, I have to devote hours like this filling up forms and I don't know whether this will materializes or not. University help us in this context but they are all in local language. Every body here in the university can speak English as such if the messages would have been given in English then could have helped international student more.
