Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Because in a dormitory is quit hard to have some privacy. This can affect the the learning possibilities as well
Personal comments:
There weren't any problems concerning accomodation. Everybody tried to help the students, especially because the program I have taken part has involved studets mostly from abroad.
