Final comments

Foreign students have to be prepared to be faced to another culture and must adapt themself according to the host country. Moreover, they also, must have been prepared to a study program different in another language. Nevertheless, the adaptation to a new environment is pretty quick

Personal comments

A lot of night activities happened on campus. Within the city, you can find a lot of typical English pubs (unfortunately closed after 11.pm !) and some discos such as the Spider, the Tower, the Room.

Housing

Type of housing: Apartment/House

Arranged by: Home university

If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Why?

The location was very convenient and the rooms are nice. The communal areas were what needed improvement. And the location makes it easy to meet other students.
