Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Make sure you live on the 32nd or 33rd of Fenwick Place, this is where most of the international students go, you will have the best time there and have friends all over the world, good for travelling!!!
