* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
The Boston University's London Internship Program was easier academically than Trinity. The workload was lighter and the grading system was the same. I enjoyed that in my classes we were able to go to museums and on architectural filed trips everyday-- (but that had to do with the location). |
