Thinking of Studying Computer Science Abroad — Need Advice! 🌍💻

Hey everyone,
I’m planning to study Computer Science abroad as an undergraduate and I’d love to hear from anyone who’s done something similar.

Which countries or universities would you recommend for a strong CS program and good international student support? Also, how tough is the application and visa process for international students?

Any tips on scholarships or affordable options would really help too.

Thanks in advance! 😊
