“Terrible Experience”
Steven S
United States, Undergraduate
, 2023
OverallVery poor experience for international students studying abroad. Very little resources in terms of both faculty and support staff to help students. Heavy drinking culture, which often takes precedent over academics. Arbitrary policies that make life hard on students during the semester with very little if any relief or accommodations. The university is very expensive when it comes to housing, but expect effectively zero wifi and no AC or Heating throughout the year. I would not recommend this university to any student looking for study abroad experience.

Personal comments
Most of the international students live in the campus villiage, which is adequate- especially given the housing situation in Lyngby. My housing was exceptional.
