Personal comments
Accomodation in Halls is alright during your first year, because you meet lots of people. If you need to study, on the other hand, Halls are much too noisy.

Selly Oak has a great student atmosphere and is very near the university and the pubs. It's also where most of the house-parties are held.

There will always be something that no one told you. Finding some things out on your own is necessary in the growing process.

Live near the campus, and interact with British students as much as possible. It is easy to only associate with other foriegn students, but half the fun is making friends with locals.

The Housing Office is well organised. All you need to search a place to live it's just to go there and ask them some suitable solution, you will find an answer in such a few time.

Personal comments
At the begging I passed some bad time, I couldn't understand almost anything, but then I have improved my English.
Now that I'm not speaking any more as before I'm losing what I have learned, it's a pity. That's why I need to have new experiences aboard.
