Leave your mobile phones to your home countries, don't eat in the restaurants. But books are a lot cheaper in UK. Try to avoid London,it's mega-expensive (I know, everybody has to visit it!It's cool anyway)

Housing in the university is really practical, but for the first year in the uni. I would prefer be independant and live wit postgraduate people.
