I got this from my university. So anybody going or know more about this program. I so want to go but my age don't permit. But I will ask my lecturer on this. It look so fun. But then, at that time my new semester will start. The real concern is the essay. I don't have a clue what to talk about.

BTW, I'm from Malaysia. (If this topic unrelated feel free to move.)

The info that I get is from my university. Maybe you can ask your lecturer or university. I think tomorrow I will ask my lecturer on this. If you had Korean language class, ask the lecturer there.

I know Stanford College PJ will sent maybe one student. The competition is tight for any exchange program to Korea. Usually my lecturer will give only to third level student of korean lanugage student or student that showed much improvement in the class. I don't think I can't make it though.

it's good to hear that there are programs like this to strengthen nationalism and to educate the youth about their mother land. so different from the youth ranch that i attended. hope there are more programs like this all over the world.
