Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
On Campus accommodation is still more expensive. However, meals are included. Moreover on campus is nice for party but quite annoying if you are into serious studying.

Personal comments
The university housing office offers some support for people who are looking for off campus accommodation. It is important to start searching as early as possible. At the beginning of the semester most accomodations are already taken. Housing is relatively expensive.
