I did a yahoo search with these key words: international internships California I found this website: http://www.usainternship.com/html/intern... Some search engines you can use for your own research are: yahoo.com google.com ask.com dogpile.com Use the key words I have suggested and other keywords you feel may apply. You probably be able to find others as well. Good luck

Try contacting companies directly. Depending on the industry you are interested in, you may be able to arrange an internship through the Netherlands branch of the company. For example, ABN Amro is well established in Banking in the US and may be able to support this. The US does not generally do internships for students in many industries these days to cut costs, so you need to be persistent. Also, the internship may not support travel and housing, so you may need to figure that into your plans. I believe that many internships are for no pay in Europe, but in the US there may be a modest pay for the intern. Good luck

Wear a yellow blonde wig and smoke some dope with him. He will think he is home.

There should be a counsellor appointed for him to monitor this. Have your bf speak to him. otherwise you could contact his embassy for ideas or organise a Dutch/clog party etc or introduce him to the culture of your area so that he is so busy he will be able to manage his homesickness. Being an exchange student is too an important opportunity to miss. You are only limited by your imagination and the help of your friends.

What's the cost of a Netherlands Residence permit for a student?
What's the cost of a Netherlands Residence permit for a student?
I'm studying in an exchange program there and can't find the proper info. I'll be there for 6 months... and from one site I saw it says I have to pay around 450 Euros! That's insane... is this really the cost, even for a temporary student?

664.41 Euros.

If you look at the official IND (immigration dept) site then there is a PDF file which details all the current prices http://www.ind.nl/en/Images/0907%20kosten_ENG_tcm6-76140.pdf It depends on the category that you fall into as to the costs (e.g. whether it is officially an exchange program either €433 as a regular (exchange) student or €250 as part of the accelerated program. Follow the wizard on the same site for more details http://www.ind.nl/EN/verblijfwijzer/verblijfwijzer_content.asp?proc=komen&lang=en Exchange programme: – to stay as part of a exchange programme via a private organisation = €433 – to stay as part of a exchange programme via the accelerated procedure = €250 To study: – to study €433 – to study via the accelerated procedure €250 EDIT - regarding the below claims of being local, now that is what I call a "load of trash". It is patently obvious that no-one on this site even exists and they are certainly not Dutch because the cost of a permit does not depend on the area and there is no just thing as a "mayor's" office even if you translate badly from Dutch to English! The links I have given you are from the official immigration dept site which is an official and central body As an ex student advisor for foreign students, I can assure you that it does not get any more official than this..... and certainly a lot better than a site which copies questions from Yahoo Answers and answers them with non-existant people's profiles (again very obvious to someone who is really "local"!)

Why don't you study in your own country, and come and work in the Netherlands afterwards. There is no charge to work here.

On bellen.com you can find the answers. I am afraid it is in Dutch. I would think Chippie would be a good offer for calling on your mobile to abroad. But it depends. Are you thinking of a prepaid card? Or a montly subscription? A prepaid you could consider Hema. I have given a link with calls by mobile to the UK (Verenigd Koninkrijk), but you can choose other countries too USA gives the same cheapest companies. For calling within the Netherlands Telfort would be the cheapest. But Telfort is more expensive if you call to abroad. You can try the belwijzer, (second link below) but the Dutch will be pretty difficult:
