alexbr4 Verified User. Likes Earned: 1577 Interesting, I guess Brexit could deflate the euro marketplace for a few years, until things get truly sorted out. Either way, US schools are the safer option, if you want to be in the US long term. Euro schools might be the more adventurous option. (1)

anon19776 Likes Earned: 29 I agree that US long term is much safer. I think the uncertainty of Brexit is a negative for European schools. If you are interested in the beach and warm weather, UCLA is the way to go :) (0)
