but i think what i just said is quite irrelevant with what you want, right? :P
The program from 3 months I talked about IS erasmus so it's not irrelevant really hehe ... But it isnt true what you are saying about the price ... You can get a kind of scholarship but as always, as an only child and 2 working parents we will get hardly a thing

all people i know didn't pay anything (as long as they passed the subjects) so maybe it depends on the university... i don't know... but again universities here belong to the state so we don't have to pay for anything not even for the books so maybe this has to do something. i don't know how things work there
but everyone has told me that they've had the time of their lives so don't miss it!

Yes it must be something with the country then as we have to pay for books, copies, stuff we use at school + we have to pay 500 euros each year just to go there

Ow damned I really want too !!! I know you are all right but even if I want too, I need to pay it and if I can't ...

I made a half decision ... I think I won't go abroad for the 3 months ... Mostly for the money, Im sure the experience is amazing but well you can't have everything you want I think
I do think I will apply for the short period (which is a month) I also have the experience of going to school in another country, will meet new people ... I know a month isn't that long but it's better then having nothing I guess..
Am I stupid now?

just 500... it's not fair...

I think you could've guessed my opinion on your plans already: go for it! It may seem a little scary in the beginning, but it's a experience you'll never forget! And when you really want to go for something, money shouldn't be an issue really. I think you should try and get most out of it, now you've got the oppurtunity! I can't wait to leave the country again for a longer while, but I'll probably have to wait until my traineeship in two years...

go for it! even for one month... and maybe it's better than the long period (in case you're not very happy with the country or the uni or the people)

Thanx all for the advices but I made a decision ... Im going to apply for the short placement which is a month ... I'll have the experience for a short while anyway and I can pay it so that's good
Now I only hope I will get accepted as there are only 7 places.
Choices are Spain, The Netherlands, Germany, Estonia or Litouen ... I have to make a Top 3 ... That will be the doubting-part now

You made a good choice!
I'll cross my fingers, leggs, arms, toes, ... maybe it'll help you to get one of the places!!
