Johannes Kepler Universität Linz (JKU)

It is a great way to meet international students but quite difficult to interact with austrians. Bring lots of money and travel too!

If you need help with something then just ask someone, most people are happy to help. Don't worry about the bad service that you sometimes get in shops and restaurants.

The halls of residences are not owned by the university, but by private organisations. They are generally in very good condition, and are very reasonably priced, but tend to differ significantly between one another. I stayed at the international halles, the Julius Raab Heim. It was very well furnished with adequate facilities, but with excellent amenities. There is a cafe and a swimming pool, however this is mainly due to the fact that the halls double as a hotel. Organisation is very beaurocratic and tight, however we found our way round most problems. Tips: To have a glass of Sangria ready if the porter comes to turn the music down. Have parties in the boys kitchens as these do not face on the residents side.
