Fair

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.
