The fitness facilities are lacking overall compared to american standards. Poor hours and mostly just cardiovascular exercise rather than weights.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because sharing an house with other people is an interesting experience. Not only because you learn how to share your daily life with them but also because of the opportunity to interact with different kind of people. Moreover, living in a different place than a Campus allowed me to know other people beyond the students.

if you are interested in something that seems to be restricted - just go there and try to get in anyway, works quite often! (Master courses etc)

best cafe: de werf (cheap but good quality food and drinks), ron blacks (good atmosphere to drink cocktails at night, de rector (good place to just dance and chill). at the grote market there are a lot of bars so at night time, you could just have your pick. there was a fair during winter for a month and it was nice.
