HOUSING    
by Richard, Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom
Business Studies, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:

Disappointing.
Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? The accomodation was new, modern, clean, great bathroom , privacy.
Personal comments:
The apartment was shared with 4 other people and gavme the opportunity to immediately meet new people and make new friends. The apartment block itself was a purpose built building with 5 floors with 2 apartments on each floor, all occupied by students which gave it a great atmosphere. The apartment and rooms were well kept, the individual rooms were big enough to house a small country and were situated in an ideal location in the town.

Oh too many to say, but the Stiefel was great for a real german beer fest, being a stop off for any hen-night in town. The Gruene Ganz for great grilled chicken sandwiches with garlic sauce. Guinness opened an Irish pub, but I can't remember the name of it. Must have been the Guinness!

ACADEMIC    
by Richard, Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom
Business Studies, Erasmus
My academic experiences
Quality of courses
KEY:
Fantastic.
Pretty good.
Could've been a bit better.
Disappointing.
Variety of courses
Availability/access to resources
Interaction with teachers
Interaction with other international students
Interaction with local students
Course recommendations:
In hindsight, the experience was very leisurely. I now feel it should have had more weight behind it in terms how serious we should have taken this study period in Germany. Having said this though, compared to our German colleagues, who have the option of what exams they take at the end of the year, the UK version of the course was and probably still is much harder as we only had 4 years to complete it! On average it took our German colleagues 6 years!



My opinion of the university assessment
Exams at end of course
KEY:
Liked it.
It was alright.
A bit annoying.
Didn't like it.
Exams throughout the course
Essays and/or projects at the end of course.
