Other important factor to be taken into consideration is how much you can spend and what programs adjust better to you (language you wish to learn, duration of the course, special courses, internships in different companies, accommodation) Once you have made a choice, you must get in touch with the coordinators of the different destinies so that they can tell you about the different subjects and credits you can obtain.
