I'm coming up on finishing my 64 credits which will mark the finish of the transfer program I'm in at the moment. I'm always had thoughts about doing some school in Europe, preferably collage. Now since I'm getting up to that point, I'm looking forward into looking into my options. Before I start typing more, I want to clarify that I am fluent in Swedish. Next to English being my native tongue and Swedish being a language I have spoken since I was little, I also speak fluent German, Spanish, and Conversational French. I had a nanny from age three to about 8 who was from Sweden and used to speak to me in both English and Swedish so naturally I become fluent. Since my mother and her basically sisters, extremely good friends, I can speak Swedish with her and my mother as well. German became fluent in just from studying since I was 9 in school and under the Berlitz centers. Spanish came from working for my dad's construction company since I was in the 8th grade. Must of the employees are of Mexican, Honduras, or Dominican decent. So they taught me Spanish. French came from Pimsleur but the only reason why I was trying to learn in the first place was to impress this Canadian girl who was at school for an exchange program. Anyways back to Sweden. I finish this transfer Program at the end of this semester, sometime in December. I was thinking on looking for a school and doing interviews an such during the Winter and Spring so I would be able to attend and start my Third year in the Fall. But I'm not that sure how attending international schools works. So I have many questions to ask about attending but I will type just the basic ones at the moment.

Such as:
How do I apply for a School in Sweden?
How do I attend a school in Sweden?
Good Universities in Sweden to attend?
Pricing of Swedish students?
What do I need?
Will a Swedish Degree be use-full back in the States or only in Sweden?
How to get visa?
Where to live?
Jobs for Non Swedish(American)?
And problems with race? My mother in Black and my Father is of Jewish and Russian Decent.
Websites to go to?
Etc.?

Any other Information you have can help. Also, thoughts on majors are Swedish Literature, German Literature, World History, or Political Science or Studies. Other as well maybe. And I would like to join the Military once I come back so I can give my part back to my country.
