Mildred Pombo: Just a suggestion: Take latin in school now. It should give you a good foundation for learning most other languages. I traveled allot and found trying to learn the local language and dialect was half the fun. i never took any foreign languages in high school so initially it was difficult. While traveling in Europe I learned to order up to 100 Beers in 6 different languages.lol
Rosalyn Olivera: I'm not entirely sure, but I doubt you would need to be fluent in the language. Although knowing a bit does help.
Roselee Mczeal: Yep, for nursery school you'll have to learn Greek. It's not that difficult though (but you must want it), if there's a local Greek community (bigger American/Australian/Canadian cities have some Greek communities) or even a Greek Orthodox church you could ask for someone to teach you. After two years you'll be ready, I reckon.There are some American colleges in Athens, but I highly doubt it that they provide healthcare courses.! You'll have to enrole in the State University, as a foreigner, you'll probably get in easier than Greeks. There are something like 20 State Universities in Greece.As soon as you're ready and start learning a bit of Greek you could ask in a Greek Consulate or in the Greek Embassy for further information.--------Ignore Greece-haters trolls below (yes, there are both Greek-lovers and Greek haters) | | | v...Show more
Delora Struzzi: Most colleges will make you take classes in the native language of the country that you are studying in. Some colleges make you take a few classes of the language there before you go abroad. I go to Cornell and I know this is what they make you do for anywhere that's native language isn't English. Also, depending upon which classes you do, they are sometimes taught in the native language, meaning that some of your classes could definitely be in Greek. The best bet for you would be to do all of your General Education courses classes abroa! d. Once you get into more specialized classes, like nursing w! ould be, the classes are often taught in the native language. I would recommend going your last semester of your sophmore year or first semester of your junior year. Just for clarification, General Education classes are classes that everyone has to take in some form or another, no matter your major. They're classes like English, Humanities, and Foreign Language. The best advice would be for you to check out the websites for the colleges you are considering going to. Almost all college websites have information on their individual study abroad opportunities. What their study abroad program is like may even help sway your decision when applying for and accepting admission. Hope this helps and enjoy Greece when you finally do go. It's an amazing country, I just got back from there!...Show more
Sylvie Snetting: Santorini is an amazing place to live and travel but being a tiny island it has no university. However if you want to study in Greece there are many other ! options, like being a university student in the island of Crete. Please inform as on which fields you are studying. The place you are describing with the boats is probably Venice in Italy. However both Greek islands and Venice are civilized places and are not really that different from being in Japan or any other developed country, when you live there and are not just visiting the attractions....Show more
Francis Stickle: Find some safer place.
With the origination of a vote-based system, the Olympics, and the lighthouse, Greece is perhaps the best nation to concentrate abroad. Understudies will want to appreciate the rich cooking, dynamic nightlife, and the famous island lifestyle. Greece is known for being perhaps the cheapest country in Europe as far as educational expenses just as the costs of living.
