University of Liverpool and University of the West of Scotland Spotlight
This week we are highlighting both the University of Liverpool and the University of the West of Scotland. Both of these universities are fantastic if you want to explore beyond the US, but don’t need any language credits! The University of Liverpool is located in the Knowledge Quarter and boasts of events on and off campus to keep students involved in the community. The University of the West of Scotland is a great way to expand your international knowledge and explore the Scottish community! The deadline to apply for this Spring is October 31!
