HOUSING

Computer Science/IT, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? Living in a house is just great but living in a campus makes you more in contact with what is happening and helps a lot in getting information about your studies and making more friends
Personal comments:
It's very hard in Copenhagen to find free places with good prices.Some people are more lucky and some are less.As for the accomodation office, I think that they are doing a lot but still not everything however I don't expect them to do everything. It's true that magazines and advertisements are in Danish but it is no problem asking somebody to translate a small add about appartement rentals.Some people just don't get it that somethings they have to do by their own.The place we got from the acc. office was pretty dirty at the beginning and there were problems with the heating. We fixed a lot of things in the house ,after all we are newcomer engineers and we cleaned the shit that was there. No we are one of the few people to have a supercheap house with a perfect location and a backyard for summer grills, no family but still nothing fancy.

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: French
Local language was: Different than language of instruction.
Was learning French a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't. Was learning the local language a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my knowledge How much did you improve your French?
My level before: No problems in any areas (including slang) My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) How much did you improve your local language?
My level before: Did not speak it My level after: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.) Personal comments:
The Danes speak realy good English. The Danish tongue is too difficult to learn in 6 months only, especially since the pronounciation can be a lot different from the written version of the word (more so than in other languages, in my humble opinion) This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

look out for the 'whats on' guide in english every month - this tells you about all the concerts and performances that are happening. also most of the nightclubs have a night when entry is free... a good way to say some kroner This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
