Personal comments
I had difficulties getting the books I needed from the libraries; and because Complutense and Politecnica are right next to each other, it is sometimes difficult to tell which campus the library you're in belongs to. If you have research projects to do, consider finding an alternative early.

Overall
I wish I had known...
That I had to pretty much arrange my housing situation alone. The schools don´t help out much.

Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
Try to get involved. I volunteered with the college radio and with IPADE, a human rights NGO. It helps to meet more Spaniards and better your language skills. Too many Americans stuck with other Americans and never really learned the language.

The communication facilities are more expensive here nad they are quiet fundamental for youre social life locally and at home. The prices of housing have increased by more than a 100% in madrid in the last years. Travels were low budget and therefore afordable.

When I think of my time passed at the University in Madrid I consider the most useful and beautiful period during my academic years .....a personal regreet is that I travelled too little - so this is my advice: travel a lot, you can do it even without too much money ...nothing compares to the personal experience gained by travelling!

Government assistance
Other sources of funding:
Personal savings
Work opportunities:
It was not legal for me to work
Personal spending habits
I spent less here in basis services such as phone, rental and other bills because they´re covered by the grant (except for phone). I usually spend my money on books, clothing and visits to museums and other places of interest. Unlike at home where I used to pay all the bills myself.
