SNU engineering exchange semester
Hey guys!
I wanted to come on here to get some insights on how it’s like to live in Seoul for a semester at SNU.
I got chosen by my university in the US to come and spend a semester next fall here as the classes I will be taking align with the classes offered in Seoul that semester.
I’m a male aerospace engineering major and will be taking 3 aerospace related classes and one language class ( required for minor ).
For those who’ve done that would you recommend living on or off campus?
Also how is the city? I’ve traveled a lot across Asia ( mainly China Vietnam and Japan ) and really enjoyed the city life. I’m aware it’s different when you travel VS living there but having lived in mountains my whole life I kinda feel drawn to cities.
Also any tips in general about certain things to help me out?
Thank you for tips you might have!
