So I got accepted to study abroad at Koc University for Fall 2009. Pretty ridiculously amazingly exciting.

I'm also trying to find a way to do intensive language study in Turkey over the summer. Right now I'm waiting to hear back from the State dept. on a Critical Language Scholarship, but if that falls through I might just apply for summer school at a Turkish school that offers it, like Bilkent. If everything goes according to plan, the summer program would begin in June/July and end in August/early Sept., and then my fall semester will begin in late September. That would leave me 3-4 weeks to roam around on my own, and possibly backpack around Europe. :>

I know there's at least one Turk who posts here, but are there any others?! I might need your help (I will need a lot of it) when I get there. Especially for the cell phone situation. >.>

For any other undergrads (and even highschoolers), I suggest you study abroad before your time is up.
