Budapest, Hungary - Education with Style
Interestingly, Budapest is basically two separate cities - Buda and Pest. Divided by the beautiful Danube River, Buda is the older city. It is more residential and conservative and is built on the hills and high river terraces that are on the river's western side. Pest lies to the east of the river on a big, sandy plain and harbors the commercial and social side of the city.

Making Travel and Housing Arrangements
Many study abroad programs take care of participants' international travel and housing arrangements. If this is not the case with your program, then it will be your responsibility to arrange for travel to your program site and/or find your own accommodations. You may also want to consider making plans for your own transportation and housing if you decide to do additional traveling at the end of your program.

StudyAbroad.com Marketplace provides information on how to go about finding travel and housing arrangements. Please read more at StudyAbroad.com marketplace.
