Final comments
Before going anywhere, do your search and collect information on all aspects of the student and non-student life in the destination country. Arrange your accomodation and your finance before arriving in he country. Try to learn the language at least to an intermidiate level. Always generate contacts even e-contacts as difficult situations may arise and you may need help. Don't always count on family. Prepare yourself to be completely independent. Don't forget to enjoy life as life is too short.

Why you should think about the university of Greenwich to study abroad.
Yasmin M
Denmark, Undergraduate
Journalism, 2019
Overall
The university of Greenwich used to be a historic naval base of which many tourists visit the campus to bask in the beautiful campus. The university itself offers many opportunities for students to gain experience in volunteering for campus activities as well as social clubs. The teachers offer information and experience of which they have learnt, being professors and having years of experience in the field you choose to learn. The learning style is professional yet relaxed. It has been an educational and enjoyable experience studying at the university of Greenwich.
