Hi
I'm not sure if I have posted in the correct thread or not.
I'm looking for some information on the Erasmus year offered to University students.
My daughter is doing a 3 year business course and applied and was accepted for an Erasmus year in Holland.
Not having been to Uni myself, I would like to understand more about it.
While a year in a foreign country is not part of her degree course, nor is she going on a work placement, I don't understand what the benefit is academically. Does there need to be one? Is it enough to be able to say I've done my degree and had an Erasmus year?
After the two years that have just passed, I think it will be great for her to get away, get some independence and experience a new way of life. She currently lives at home while her first year in college was from the attic and the second year has them going in on a three day week.
Really just trying to expand my own knowledge on the topic.
If anyone has any pointers or experience of completing an Erasmus year that did not count towards your degree, I would love to hear your thoughts.
Thank you
