I wish I had known...
That it does not rain as much as people say it does in London...the weather was great! Also I wish I had known to bring my laptop. It would have been more convenient. But there are internet cafes everywhere so getting online was never a problem. It was also very cheap to get online.

Birkbeck was great because it was located in Bloomsbury in London, where alot of other universities were located so there were a ton of students in the area. The classes were great and we got to tour London to the fullest. I wish I could have taken even more classes or stayed longer. They were very interesting and tied into the study abroad experience.

Planned more traveling before hand. I would have liked to see many more places. But that just gives me more room to travel more, now that my college career is over.

The University premises and cafeteria were wonderful. Even though we had American teachers, I still enjoyed our stay at an international university.

Keep in touch with family members, but don't let things/feelings/emotions/drama from home get in the way of your international experience. This experience is for YOU!
