Go to Cambridge!!! Past Review
By Nora H (Musical Theater, University of California - Los Angeles) for
Pembroke College, University of Oxford - Visiting Students Program
Yes, I learned so much about the English culture. Also the way that the colleges are run is completely different over there and it helped me decide whether I wanted to apply for grad school abroad.
