The International Student Blog

A feature that not many of your will be aware of on InternationalStudent.com is our video profiles for various schools around the world. The video profiles are of schools from the USA, UK and Europe and offer you the opportunity to learn more about campuses and what a university is really like through online videos.

A few of the schools that we currently have online video profiles for include:

• University of Richmond, USA
• Columbia College, USA
• Georgian Court University, USA
• Nottingham Trent University, UK
• UCL, UK
• University of Greenwich, UK
• InHolland University, Holland

With the launch of the new InternationalStudent.com Rail Pass Center, we are giving away a FREE First Class Rail Pass for the UK. This fantastic prize offers benefits such as:

* 4 days First Class travel throughout the UK
* Must be used within a 4 month window
* Fully transferable – so you can give it to anyone

To have a chance of winning the rail pass you just need to purchase any one of our European Rail Passes during the month of January and you will be automatically entered into the draw. The winner will be announced in our next newsletter, so be sure to check back!

Please also note, that with most rail passes you can purchase them for advanced travel – so if you are planning to travel through Europe over Easter or Summer, now is often the best time to purchase a rail pass. You also have flexibility on most rails passes so you do not need to be specific on your travel date!
