Pros

  • I get to live in Geneva for 4 months, where would I ever get to stay in Europe for 4 months?
  • A banging internship (hopefully), hopefully at an NGO.
  • Close to the rest of the European countries that I want to visit.
  • It is one of the most competitive programs at BU, it would be a waste to give it up.
  • It is a small program, which means I would be be in close contact with my professors, compared to a larger program, where it would be 200-odd students in a class.
  • It isn't a place where I feel I would get lost in; most people say the nightlife isn't overwhelming and it's a great place to live in.
  • People speak English.
  • Cheaper school fees, surprisingly.
  • Nicer weather than Boston or London.
  • I get to take a mouette (boat) as public transport! Just like in Venice.
  • The housing is right beside Lake Geneva.
  • It's fairly safe.

Cons

  • A waste of a class taking French.
  • None of the classes count toward my major. (_I would still be able to graduate on time though._)
  • ... I'm scared.
