Studying Opportunities International

[tsume]

I've been thinking about doing my masters next year and maybe give a international university a shot.

I'd just like to know if anyone here has gone to study outside SA, what was the process like? Also what about funding. I did apply in my matric year to go study in the UK, got accepted but did not go as I got a bursary to study here.

Sidenote: I could just Google this stuff out, but I'd like to know from other peoples experience.

I wanted to do it, saw it would cost a ****tonload and decided to rather study here.

There was a guy on radio 702 just last week saying the bursaries are there but no South African university gives info on them as much as they do other bursaries.

Well you'll be paying living costs everywhere. My spanish isn't that good though...

Nah i just meant that rent is a but pricey there. I think its english so you might want to check, people go there for the medical degree especially if they can work as something else already.

If you are black then European universities might give you a full scholarship. Although at Masters level ... I really sure. It depends on the course and academic field. In the natural sciences probably in business maybe ...

Scandinavian countries?

Scandinavian countries are slowly coming by. Their own non-exposure to third-world countries have always clouded their political orientation ... until recently when everyone with brown skin started immigrating to white Europe.

Ironic ... black/brown skinned people could do nothing to stop colonialism out of sheer weakness.

White Europe can't do anything to stop reverse colonialism because of sheer ignorance.

Just so you know, most first world countries (Finland is a prime example) will force you to sign a document after acceptance stating that you will not remain after you're done with your studies else they will deport you.

Unfortunately Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Frenchland, Itali and those Spaniards haven't received the memo yet.

HMS Mainland has lost the plot since 1820 A.D. already. Londonistan is a lost cause. No wonder curry is so popular.
