Education Abroad Fair-
Expand Your Horizons
This is your chance to
get a life! And you have a
choice of over 120 loca-
tions in which to get a
life.

It is quite true that some
people never find out
what they really want to
do with their lives even
after they graduate from
university and join the
labor force (or not). Well,
perhaps what you're
really looking for isn’t in
Canada. For those stu-
dents who wish to liber-
ate themselves from the
confines of the north that
is UNBC, the
International Centre
offers you the Education
Abroad Fair, on October
12th to expand you aca-
demic horizons.

UNBC students can now
select from over 120
institutions in 13 coun-
tries around the globe,
and our _ international
exchange program offers
opportunities in all pro-
grams. Scholarships are
also available to assist
students in many coun-

tries including New
Zealand, France,
Finland, Sweden and
Japan. A number of
UNBC grants are also
available for those think-
ing of going’ on
exchange.

Equally as important, the
International Centre will
be holding. information
sessions on exchange
programs throughout the
month of October. The
current foreign exchange
students and Canadian
students who have gone
on exchange, will lead
these sessions to give
you a better understand-
ing of what you will be
getting into. The com:
plete schedule of these
sessions are made avail-
able at the International
Centre. During this week
information sessions will
be held on October 40th
at 12:30pm (Italy and
Norway) and 12th at
1:30 (Japan), and all
sessions will be held in
room 7-103.
