  • Hi Saadi,

    I have no personally gone on exchange yet but I do hope to in my 3d year at OCAD U where I am currently taking a BFA in Drawing and Painting.

    I don't know what program your in but most schools have sister school and specific for different programs. For example I am able to go to non-specialised schools but I can also go to the Art Institute of Chicago.

    In my third year I am hoping to take a year in Florence where OCAD has their own campus and school. Otherwise I would consider France or Rome because of the great heritage and lineage of art.

    You want to consider going somewhere that will be beneficial to your program but also somewhere you're interested in.

    I hope this helps.
  • Hey Andrew!

    I'm technically studying abroad right now. I grew up in New Delhi, India and just moved to Toronto for graduate school. I'm currently a student at OCAD University studying Digital Futures. I've travelled quite a bit over the last few years. Turkey, Norway, Dubai, Malaysia, India and China to name a few.

    I'd most definitely recommend the experience. I feel that we have a tendency to accept certain things as norms based on where we grow up so having those experiences and understanding different points of view from people around the world really helps shape who you are.

    OCAD has an exchange program with Delphi in Greece that I'm super keen on joining next year.
