Personal comments
In my opinion more assistance should be provided to exchange students and more information in advance, especially for those who do not succeed in getting a dormitory room.

While beeing in Milan you have a great opportunity to travel where ever you like, because all the low-cost airlines fly from Milan. And even if you don't speak Italian you will still manage perfectly.

“Overall Bocconi experience”

Overall
Most professors are highly qualified and the teaching system is a hybrid between the classic Italian system based on the theory and the anglo-saxon system which is more practical, with case studies and group assignments.
There are many opportunities to study abroad, networking events and career fairs to facilitate the entry into the job market.
Milan is also a great place to live, with many events happening all the time, a good night life and many working opportunities.

I would recommend saving before going to Italy. There are so many things to do and see that it would be a shame to miss out due to financial problems.
