Personal comments

Before the exchange program I was ok with both languages - English and German. But afterwards my Enlgish improved very much, and also my German improved. It was a little bit funny, that although I was living for 4 months in Germany, I spoke a great deal more English than German. The reason for this was, that at the university most students were international students, so they spoke hardly any German - so the common language was after all English.

Housing

Type of housing: On campus

Arranged by: Host university

If returning, I would choose: On campus

Why?

Firstly, because campus is so near to the university, library and all the other facilities that you might have to use. Secondly, you become an inseperable part of the university students community.

Personal comments

The housing facilities were very good. I was provided with everything what was promised. Of course, the prices are quite high, but since I did not live there for too long and got a scholarship from my home university, it was bearable.

Barrocko and Brazil are the best bars in town. The Clubs are not so good in Bruchsal. Stuttgart has very stylish places to go, e.g. 1. Stock and Bar66.
