Are there any safety issues in Bangkok and Thailand that I should be aware of? |
| |
You may be aware of media reports concerning political disturbances in the south of Thailand. While of intense interest to the Thai people because of its intercultural nature, events in the southern provinces are very removed geographically from Bangkok, where Thammasat University is located. International students arriving at the university are briefed on the situation and counseled against visiting or transiting the area. The region is approximately 1,000 km from the university. There have been no threats or incidents in Bangkok related to developments in the far south. |

Am I guaranteed housing? |

All exchange students will have voluntary BBA Thammasat students as buddies to help the exchange student adjust to a new environment and make them feel comfortable in whichever ways they can. Moreover, the staff from the International Affairs office of Thammasat Business School provides the hotline service to the exchange students, so they are able to get in touch with our staff 24/7, especially in case of emergency. |
