Please sum up your exchange experience. If you have any other tips for future exchange students, or any other comments feel free to include them here.

I was in such a good place at Gustavus Adolphus, that I will be returning next fall for another two semesters. Not as an exchange student, but as a free mover. As of right now I am reapplying for the visa as well as researching flight tickets. It will be possible for me to graduate by the end of Spring 2015, with a major in Scandinavian Studies and a minor in Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies. I have made good friends, and I am happy to be sharing the commencement ceremony with them.

Naturally, I've learned a lot from the classes that I've had, as well as about academics in the US, but most important, I have learned a great deal about myself. To my surprise, Gustavus, despite what you might think when you hear about its Christian profile, is a very open space regarding LGBTQ issues. I immediality felt comfortable among students, faculty, and staff members, and was happy to see that every semester the students and members of the faculty are invited to an educative event called Safe Zone Training, that brings to the table LGBTQ terminology and matters to discuss.

If you are looking for a small campus where connections are easily made, where the academic standard probably stands well compared to much bigger schools, and where nature and landscape sceneries are right around the corner, Gustavus Adolphus College should be one of your priorities.
