"A wise person learns from the mistakes of others"
BFA presents answers to questions that nobody really prepares college students for
Questions like:
Does partying define my college experience?
Jerks seems to be doing really well, should I be one too?
How do I maintain long distance friendships from high-school?
While there are several forums online that list requirements for university, none of them prepare us for questions that nearly EVERY student faces. The answers to these questions are learned through lived experiences. And that’s what BFA is. Our lived experiences that we share with you.
Not everyone has a rich network to answer basic questions. And that's okay.
Two years ago I came to Germany with a lot of questions
But not too many people to ask them. Hence, I started creating Notion documents with my experiences of studying as an international student. My friends and I consolidated these documents to create BFA, and answer questions that we were too embarrassed to ask, or didn’t know who to ask.
We wish we knew these things in college, and hope you benefit from these notes. Enjoy the ride!
We’ve devoted a lot of time and love to creating these answers with the hope that you find them useful. If you’d like us to answer any specific questions, please feel free to submit them below:
