A good university. The city is great for young people, although night-life and accomodation are very expensive. It's easy to travel wherever you want to, but, again, it's quite expensive.

Course recommendations
It's better to get information and choose the courses as soon a possible because many of them are very crowded and there's the risk not to be able to follow the course you like

Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House

Personal comments
The Fallowfield campus at the University of Manchester was very centrally located, and I had no problems getting to/from class and the city centre. Additionally, the accommodation halls always provided many interesting social events and engaging activities.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Private is the way to go, its cheaper and University housing limits what u can get: cable tv, furnishing. That only works if you know the area to a certain minimum, if its your first time, stick with university housing

Amazing experience, met an amazing diversity of people and the sense of communty is unique. Rooms were a bit small but then so is everything in the UK (and most of Europe) when you've lived in the US.
