Personal comments
The nicest place for a coffee & great and to relax: pois café, o café austriaco: alfama, right of sé (cathedral): rua sao joao da praca 95.
Lisbon is a quite big city and no "university town" - so of course there is not only student life. However, exchange students usually stick quite together.

There are some very good places where you can have fun in the Night: Docas, Santos, Oriente, Bairro Alto (Mezcal is the meeting place of the Erasmus students). There is also a very nice place in Alfama called Chapito and a very good "pastelaria" in Baixa Chiado called "Lua de mel"
