HOUSING    
by Marjorie, 's-Hertogenbosch, Avans Hogeschool, Netherlands
Marketing and Sales Management, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:
Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
Facilities

Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? I really liked it at the campus because you get in touch with other foreign students.
Personal comments:
I liked being housed at the campus because I've got to know other cultures better. I've learned new languages and help each other when it comes to homework, etc. It was nice to have some friends around.

STUDENT LIFE    
by Sabrina, Hogeschool-Universiteit Brussel, Brussels, Belgium
Management Science, Erasmus
Personal social experience
Activities
KEY:
Amazing! Hardly had time to study.
Plenty to do when I had the time.
So-so.
Did not get involved.
Nightlife
Travel
Overall
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Nightlife: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment
Activities: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment
Travel: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment
Personal comments:
The semester parties organised by the students at school are a lot of fun. For the rest Hof doesn't have any decent nihtclubs. The best thing to do is organise small parties with your friends at the student housing. Or have a car and drive to the nearby cities with nightclubs.

FINAL COMMENTS

The best way to travel to Hof from the Netherlandse is by car. By train is ok but takes longer. From any other countries it's best to travel by plane and fly in München and travel by train to Hof or... let somebody pick you up!
