UAG is at the crossroads of the South American continent and the Eastern Archipelago of the Lesser Antilles. You may have to travel by plane or by boat from one campus to the other. It takes three hours by plane to travel from French Guiana to Martinique, and four hours by boat from Martinique to Guadeloupe (although only forty-five minutes by plane!).
As you arrive on one of UAG's five campuses you will probably be charmed by the temperature and the vegetation around but, without a good preparation ahead, you might very soon be disappointed because life on the islands or on the South American continent is very different from what you have been used to so far.
Most of the following information have been written by Dr Ben Fisher for the students from his university, the University of Bangor in Wales. Dr Ben Fisher has become a specialist in students' advising and it works!
I have adapted his to document and added a few more details for you. So, please, read this information very carefully and your stay at UAG will be an unforgettable one.
