Yes you can - this should help you http://kcl.ac.uk/about/structure/admin/acareg/studentservices/intstudents/travelling.html

The link placed in the first answer actually does give the correct info, but you have to read it all the way and not just the first paragraph "•If you are from outside the EU then you may need a visa to travel to certain countries, even for a short holiday. For further information about obtaining a Schengen Visa for travelling in Europe" So to give more info, then basically actually your student visa from the UK makes no impact on your immigration status to countries like Denmark, NL, Belgium etc because they are part of the Schengen zone and the UK is not. Therefore you will need a visa depending on your nationality You can check this here http://www.klm.com/travel/ch_en/travel_information/travel_planning/travel_clinic/visaform.htm If you check the homepage of your University then chances are they will have a section on International Students and it will confirm what I am saying (every uni I have seen so far in the UK that accepts foreign students does have it) As you are legally resident in the UK then you can apply for the (Schengen) visa at the embassy in the UK (usually of the country for which you will spend the most time in the Schengen zone). The max time for a Schengen visa (which is tourist only) is 90 days out of 180 days
3 :
Many nationalities do not require a visa for visiting the Schengen Area if you don't stay more than 90 days. Otherwise you'll need a Schengen Area visa. UK visa is NOT a Schengen visa

It is probably too long, especially for someone at your level in life. You do not use pronouns/sentences in resumes. Yo have a lot of these and they all need to be changed. (NO: "I watched...) you use the third person -Really really cut back interests. No one is going to care what books you read or what you watch on the web.

I went to Australia just a month ago with People to People. It was the most amazing experience of my life!!! I highly suggest you look more into it, and if you get a chance to do it, it is worth anything you can imagine. I actually didn't get to go to my interview because I was sick that day, but the first thing you do is go to like an orientation with 100 or so other kids at a local college or something like that. Your states People to People Head leader will most likely talk to all the kids in the room about the trip you have been invited to. You will see a DVD all about People to People and about the trip you are going on. It really is a good introduction to what you have been invited too, and you definitley need to attend it. After you attend the meeting, you decide if the trip you were invited to is right for you, and then you sign up online and begin payments. They will soon begin emailing you time and dates for the interview. I missed my interview because I was sick, but my delegate leader ending up calling me and having a interview over the phone. It was just basic questions like Who is your hero? or What are some of your hobbies?. It is not stressful at all, but before you go through the interview process you have to get several recommendation letters together and fill out some papers. You really should get chosen no matter what, unless you have awful recommendations or you have done everything completely wrong. It was way easier than I thought it was going to be, but it was really a vital part to becomming a Student Ambassador. My trip was 20 days long, and we traveled the entire east coast of Australia. From Cairns to Sydney was our route, and that would be similar to traveling from New York City to Atlanta, Georgia. The cost usually ranges from $6,000 to $8,000, but once you go to your very first Intoduction Orientation Meeting, you should learn the exact price. People To People is great about giving you ideas on how to fundraise. They have a website devoted to giving you fundraising ideas, but I can't remember the name, but like I said, they will give you all this information at your first meeting. You do get to stay at someone's house for 2 nights. On my trip, our homestay was cancelled because some things arose, but we stayed on this beautiful island instead, so I was happy! The homestay would have been a lot of fun! You get to live with a family from the country you are in, and see what life is like in a home for them. I was sad to have missed out on this, but I know you will enjoy it if you get to go! You do go by yourself, and if you do get scared or anything like that, you can call your deleagtion leader and sort out the problems! You are in good hands while with People to People!!! You do not have to have a lot of prior knowledge about the country you are visiting. As long as you are a student who attends a middle school or high school you are elligible to attend a wonderful trip like this!! Once you are accepted, you wil begin the "training" process. These are the meetings you attend every month where you meet your fellow delegates( the people who live in your area that have also been accepted into the program), and you will get to know them and your leaders. At home, you have to watch some videos about the country you are visiting, and you have to complete some quizes and all that was SOOO easy!!! During the meetings, you learn a lot more about the country you are going to and what kind of things you will be experiencing. I higly suggest you take this opportunity, because at first, I looked at the invitation and was like "This looks so cool! But it will never happen!" And after going to the introduction orientation, I was really intrested. So I followed the plan on how to join a delegation, attend meetings, and pack up and leave! I had THE TIME OF MY LIFE! It sounds like so much fun in meeting, but when you actually experience it, it is absolutely amazing. I feel more accomplished than ever now that I have traveled with People To People. It has changed my perspective on getting to know people. I used to just like to get to know people so that they could be my friend or I could chat with them on facebook, but now that i have met Australians and experienced their way of life, I realized that meeting new people needs to be about learning about their culture and seeing how their way of life effects the world. I can't wait to travel more and see the rest of the world. I wish I would have had someone tell me like this how great the trip was going to be, because it was soo much more than I expected! It's worth the work and worth the waiting! I felt like it took 100 years for me to be able to get on the plane! And I met soo many new people. You will grow so close to your former delegates, and even to some locals in the country you are in!! I have missed Australia every day since I have been home, and since they wouldn't let me stay :) all I want to do is go back! haha I hope you

Which country should I go to as an exchange student?
Which country should I go to as an exchange student?
Yes, next year I will study one year abroad as an exchange student in high school. I'm a girl from Norway, I already speak english. So I will go to a country where they speak another language(must be latin alphabet). I really like french and portuguese. And I've been thinking about Brazil and Canada, Quebec (French speaking part of Canada). I have some basic knowledge of french btw. I am gay.. And I wonder how Brazilians and Canadians deal with that.. If they are narrow minded or? I would also like to know how canadians and brazilian people are. Are they kind? or proud? I hate proud people that think they are better than others, and that's why I'm not going to France. I hope people in Canada are more open too others from other countries, and not that cold and self centered. I'm also quite laid-back, I for example wouldn't go to a country with very strict dress code. The weather is no problem for me. As long as it doesn't rain every day (as it does where I live). Also, I'm not interested in english or german speaking countries(i'm not much into spanish either btw). France, Italy, Belgium, The Netherlands and Switzerland is not an option either. I think i've limited my options quite a lot. So my main questions is where to go? If Brazil and Canada is a good option for student exchange. What's the negative and positive sides of these countries. Are there many gay people over there? And if the people are nice and open. Oh, and I almost forgot.. are the schools in Brazil or Canada hard? (And, do you know if it's possible to do martial arts and fencing in Canada/Brazil?) Also, If you have any other country to recommend. Please do! Thanks.

I would go to Montreal if I were you. They speak French, it is a big city where you won' t have a problem being gay, it is very lively, and the people are cool. The only bad thing is the weather in winter, as it gets really cold. School wise, there are some very good schools there, and it is easier to get good grades than in Europe.

no canadians won't have a problem with you being gay we allow gay marriage here so prob not especially in quebec people are very.. random there ha ha well i've been there once but anyways and canadians are very laid back people we are proud to be canadian but we won't shove it in your face. i've never been to brazil so dunno about there but i am a canadian so i can tell you stuff about here .. it used to get cold early like november we would get snow but now probably because of global warming the past couple years it only snows in like december this year though i hope will be Better its kinda cold out right now. canadians are generally very friendly happy go lucky people i hope if you chose canada the people treat you right :) oh and yeah you can do martial arts in canada i dunno about fencing though.. and the dress code depends on the school.. as for the schools it depends on what school mine is pretty easy. i live in new brunswick though as for your question [is there many gay people here] yeah i'd say there is i know several gay and bisexual people. and it usually doesn't rain much in canada except in british columbia it's kinda hard to answer your questions asking if the people are narrow minded and are they kind and stuff because everyone is different but i know some really nice people. i dunno if you heard but canadians are said to be laid back friendly people :P well hope i helped bye good luck on your decision make the choice that's right for you.!

Where should I go to study french as an exchange student?
I am an American student double majoring in French and English. I want to study abroad for the fall 2011-spring 2012 semesters. I can choose from the following schools: Belgium: University of Liege Canada: University of Western Ontario France: University of Paris I (Pantheon-Sorbonne) Paris III (Sorbonne Nouvelle) Paris IV (Paris-Sorbonne) Paris VII (Paris Diderot) Paris VIII (Vincennes à Saint-Denis) Paris X (Paris Ouest Nanterre La Défense) Paris XII (Val de Marne) Paris XIII (Paris Nord) University of Evry Catholic Institute of Paris University of Marne-la-Vallée University of Versailles St. Quentin-en-Yvelines I've never been to these countries and with so many choices and information it's hard to choose. I like Canada because it is the most similar to the US. I like Belgium because it is less crowded. And I like the choices in France because the Paris area is big and I would be able to get around easier and have more things to do. I want to go somewhere that is suburban, not too expensive, and has passable classes (nothing too scholarly).

I love this exchange student and she loves me and ....?
So, we both love each other. Yes.. LOVE... I tried not to get emotionally attached to her since she's an exchange student but it just happened.. I already miss her if i don't see her 1 day.. I'm not sure what i'm going to do when she'll be gone i'll miss her so much ... I can't go to her country since i don't know the language (thai) which is almost impossible to learn. She could stay in Belgium to be with me but that would be very unlikely because of her big family & all she misses. I'm 16, keep that in mind for possibilities. We're thinking let's have as much fun while we still can - 5 months left. Should we not think that? What should I do? I want to be together with her for all eternity. It seems so impossible and makes me really really sad though when I'm with her, i'm always sooo happy.. she gives me hope and makes me smile and makes me feel cared & so many other things.....

Live in the now, not in the future. Spend the remaining months having fun and keeping each others company.

Since you asked I'm going to tell you what you need to hear and not necessarily what you want to hear. Your too involved for your and her age. The best way to handle this is to put balance in the emotional part of the relationship. Develop other friendships with girls and don't be so exclusive with just one person. If you do this it will help. Your too young for an exclusive relationship and its hard to handle the intensity of your feelings at such a young age. Balance it out with other friendships with girls. Be equally upfront with her and she will understand. You sound pretty intense and you can learn a lot about yourself with this experience. Keep it positive and enjoy the journey.

You cannot change whats happened or what is going to happen. these are your baby steps as you grow into an older you. remember this is just young love, it's not real love and teenagers have a sexual tension in them where they feel they need a girl/boy friend. don't be too quick to fall in and out of love. worry about your school work and graduating not about girls/boys! you'll be fine :)

So, we both love each other. Yes.. LOVE... I tried not to get emotionally attached to her since she's an exchange student but it just happened.. I already miss her if i don't see her 1 day.. I'm not sure what i'm going to do when she'll be gone i'll miss her so much ... I can't go to her country since i don't know the language (thai) which is almost impossible to learn. She could stay in Belgium to be with me but that would be very unlikely because of her big family & all she misses. I'm 16, keep that in mind for possibilities. We're thinking let's have as much fun while we still can - 5 months left. Should we not think that? What should I do? I want to be together with her for all eternity. It seems so impossible and makes me really really sad though when I'm with her, i'm always sooo happy.. she gives me hope and makes me smile and makes me feel cared & so many other things.....

Live in the now, not in the future. Spend the remaining months having fun and keeping each others company.

Since you asked I'm going to tell you what you need to hear and not necessarily what you want to hear. Your too involved for your and her age. The best way to handle this is to put balance in the emotional part of the relationship. Develop other friendships with girls and don't be so exclusive with just one person. If you do this it will help. Your too young for an exclusive relationship and its hard to handle the intensity of your feelings at such a young age. Balance it out with other friendships with girls. Be equally upfront with her and she will understand. You sound pretty intense and you can learn a lot about yourself with this experience. Keep it positive and enjoy the journey.

My family's foreign exchange student has an eating disorder.?
My family's foreign exchange student has an eating disorder.?
She's form Belgium, and she's 18. We got her about five months ago, and she leave on the 23rd. I think she has an eating disorder. She's pretty much anorexic. She doesn't eat breakfast, or lunch. She only eats dinner, but hse doesn't even really eat that. She might have a piece of toast, or a yogurt. Today, all she ate was two tangerine's. My mom has confronted her about it, and she said that she just didn't have an appetite. I don't think that's true though, because she has mentioned to my grandmother than she (the foreign exchange student) has gained a lot of weight since she's been her. But she hasn't gained anything, she's probably lost about ten pounds to be honest. (because she doesn't eat) She drinks water constantly, and I've walked past the bedroom and have seen her jogging in place. My mom has already contacted the student's mother about it. That didn't do much good though. I'm telling you, this girl is SKINNY. She looks sick. Also, I need your advice: I don't like her. She has talked about me before, calling me rude. She always has this disgusted look on her face, and she rolls her eyes sometimes. She gets my mom to go to a special store to buy her special bread(that's the only thing that she'll eat, and in very small amounts), which she doesn't even pay my mom back for. She gets my mom to drive her to her dance lessons, and I'm pretty sure she doesn't even say thank you. I'm just so ready for her to leave, and it seems like I can't spend time with my family and be happy, because she's always there. :( sorry for all the typos. my hands are cold! ha, :]

It's probably a good thing she's leaving. If it continued your family would be involved in it when she crashes and sooner or later she will.Just wish her well and let her go. Her folks can have the problem.

It sound's like you gave this girl more than enough chaces and shes over staying her welcome!

There's unfortunately nothing you can really do about it...I mean, what can you do? She's leaving in a little over a week. You've confronted her and her parents, and they haven't taken action. She's their responsibility. I'd give her a warm farewell then be happy she's out of your life. She sounds like a bitch.

Just be glad she is leaving? Not much else you can do for them.
