It will definitely be worth it to spend some time abroad and get credit for it. What do you think student loans are for?

Just in case it isn't clear, I will get credits for both opportunities (in addition to pay for NY)

Since you cross posted, I will too in case you don't see the other.

Sup Dbitel. Interesting take (although you do live in Europe). I should make it clear though, I do have a decent amount of money to enjoy Europe now thanks to poker, frugal saving, and limited spending.

The other thing to consider; I have a near perfect GPA at a very reputable school, so it might not be that difficult to secure a job in the future but I really don't know. The immediate concern is more of finding an internship over the summer, because I have an expensive lease senior year. Also, over here at least, a good summer internship of Jr. year greatly helps you secure a full time job.

If I decide to go to Dublin, I'll be sending you a PM. I'm already talked to Jam and he said he's willing to offer some advice on European living.

I wouldn't be living in NYC if I worked there; I would be commuting from Long Island. In NYC I would mainly be trying to bank some money to pay off my next year Uni expenses.

that being the case maybe you should go to dublin.
