What are some unique/interesting colleges?

Help, colleges in europe for equestrian?

• So this is a touch long.. I'm looking at colleges in Europe; I really want to attend school over there. The only problem is, well, I'm a American. (Who knows very little about European, uh, schooling/ect.) I want to attend college over there for several reasons, the top being the large and highly skilled Equestrian community- the type of thing I want to be a part of. So, I want a college that has a good, solid Equestrian program- and I've found a couple but I honestly don't understand most of what they require and such. It's making things rather difficult for me. So perhaps I can beg some help from those of you who understand these things.. Basically I need to figure out a few things, firstly are there any colleges you know of that are good over in Europe? (I really don't mind career kind of colleges either). Then, please, please feel free to write a very long explanation of how colleges work over in Europe (UK mostly, that seems to be were the bulk of the colleges are) and anything else that could help. I've tried Google- I promise. It just would be a lot easier to ask people and get some opinions. The only thing I'm not interested in is hearing any negative things, I can make my own choices even if you think they are silly. I have colleges in the US in mind as well, I just like the community over in Europe better (besides who doesn't want to do to Europe :P) So preferably, just humor me. If it helps right now I'm in my second working student position and am soon going to join USPC. I plan to start competing next year, I want to learn cross country at some point but am focusing in dressage at the moment. I won't be bringing a horse, so no boarding places are needed. (: Please, help? Ten points to best, for sure!
