Final comments
I have left this university after being very disappointed with it. All my recommedations are from surrey university alone, and they do not apply to the UK in general. I have gone to Hertfordshire University now, and love it. The people are a lot more friendly, and welcoming. I left as so many other of my friends including UK citizens just left. They hated it like me. The university campus buildings are dirty and ugly, the only nice part is lake. There are so many better ones to go to, like my mates are at Southampton exeter bristol and bath, and they love them, so different to surrey. Spend your money somewhere else, PLEASE

You must bring you umbrella. Have enough money. And study hard.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Because there you meet people from everywhere, and you learn how to live with people whose traditions are so diffferent from the ones you have. And I had a great time when I was in Guildford living in Campus, so I would like to do it again (if I could)

Personal comments
It was great, I have no words to explain how good it was. You learn a lot about life, to learn also to be patient because you live with 7 more who, at the begining, are not your friends. You share lots of experiences. It was the best experience of my life.
