Study abroad 2+2 program

1. Let's start with the United States. Purdue University is the best in terms of school popularity, but it is strong in science and engineering. Followed by the University of Maryland, university of idaho.

2. Let's talk about Canada. It is wrong to see the following answer that education in Canada is one step behind that in the United States. Generally speaking, the education level in Canada is absolutely first-class in the world, but it is also relatively average. Except the University of Toronto, there is no obvious grade difference among universities. Unlike American universities, they have everything from first-class to thirties. Of course, in a particular major, universities still have strong and weak points. The four universities listed in the question are basically indistinguishable.

Besides, these two universities in Australia and the Netherlands are not very famous in their respective countries, but this one in the Netherlands is actually good in agriculture.

When choosing to study abroad, you need to consider the following points:

1. Funding: Because you are a 2+2 project, there are usually no real scholarships for such projects. In this case, Australia may be a relatively cheap choice. The United States is almost the same as Canada (the United States is definitely not more expensive than Canada), and the Netherlands has never been there. I don't know much about it, but my classmates who came back from Europe said that life in Europe is very expensive, and it is not recommended to go unless it is a tuition-free project. These schools in the United States and Canada, only Vancouver, where British Columbia is located, are relatively expensive in consumption and living, and everything else is fine. But the advantage of Vancouver is its pleasant climate and superior environment. Even if you can't speak English, you can live a simple life, because there are too many people in China.

2. Do you have any plans to work or emigrate overseas? Needless to say, if you don't, you should be careful. Policies in this area are often updated every year and need to be checked. But generally speaking, Australia and Canada are relatively lenient towards international students staying in their own countries and even applying for immigration after graduation, followed by the United States and the Netherlands. If you want to find a job, the reputation and geographical location of the school are very important. In this regard, Purdue's reputation is dominant, while the geographical position of the University of British Columbia is dominant.

3. Wine major: I don't know much about this, but I have an idea for reference. The United States and Australia are both representative countries of new world wine, while Canada's ice wine industry dominates the world, and the Netherlands' popularity is not high. I'm not sure if there is a winery where the University of Western Australia is located. American wineries are mainly concentrated on the west coast near California, such as the famous Napa. None of the universities mentioned above are far from there. Utah State University and university of idaho may be close, but they are only relative, but they are still far away. However, among schools in Canada, BC, where the University of British Columbia is located, and Ontario, where the University of Guelph is located, are the concentration places of wineries and the main producing areas of ice wine in Canada.

4. Culture and other aspects: It is said that the public security in the Netherlands is not very good, but I have never experienced it, just heard about it. These local cultures in the United States are not enlightened, especially Utah, which is very traditional and closed, with low acceptance of different cultures and Mormonism prevailing. In contrast, Canada is the most tolerant country of different cultures, at least you may feel racial discrimination and discomfort. On the other hand, Vancouver is a city in China and feels at home.

These are my thoughts, and I hope they can help you a little.
