Final comments
International students should take advantage of their student IDs in order to get discounts in (museums, transportation, gymnasums...).Transportation facilities are very good and less expensive in certain hours of the day. However, the AIU will provide the new students complete infomation about london. It also organizes many trips within the UK and abroad and provides discouted tickets for some bars and restaurants .
