Personal comments
Housing at this university is a little bit like a russian roulette: you can be very lucky or very unfortunate. I was more or less in the middle, living a little bit far from university but not too far, as other students. Anyways, just the fact that they look for a flat for you and save you that problem makes it worthy.

I wish I'd known there are such a lot of practical courses taught in journalism (meaning a lot of work and few credits) and that the journalism department is politically biased, clearly left-wing.
