Similarities and differences between St.Norbert College and universities in my country:  

In my country, we don’t have lots of universities, we have what we call “college and lycées“. It doesn’t work the same way and the ages are completely different. There is a lot of similarities and differences between St.Norbert college and universities in my country. For example, one of the similarity would be that both in my country and at St.Norbert, everyone come to study and meet people. But one of the difference would be that in my country, we don’t have students from all over the world. Finally, I would say that sport isn’t really combined with school in France. 

Students usually go to school to study. I know a lot of people who are finishing up their degrees in a different country, but I also know a lot of people who choose to go study abroad because for some reasons it is better. For example you get to meet new people and learn about their cultures. But also, you get to learn all about the classroom style and teaching style and all about their food and drink. And if it is a different language, you get to learn a new language and not everyone on Earth are able to do that. This is one of the difference between St.Norbert and my country. 

In my country, school don’t really have people from all over the world. First because it would be to much work to have people who translate the classes and it would take to much of their time. But also because they maybe don’t want people from other country to come and take place in our buildings or maybe because they do not want to waste their time learning to students who are not resident in France. It is pretty hard to understand because it is a welcoming country but this is a really big difference from St.Norbert college. 

  Finally, sports are not combined with school in my country. At St.Norbert, they have sport in the school and we play for the school. In France, in my country, we need to have clubs outside of the school and we have to practice after school late at night. I like how here at St.Norbert we can both study hard but also play the sport we love and represent the school playing for them. I would say that is the biggest different between my country and St.Norbert. 

      In conclusion, students are all looking for a country and school to student in and see how people live in there places. But in my country especially, student from other countries are not a lot and finally, sport are better at St.Norbert, because it is really combined with school.
