HOUSING
by Sveti, University College Dublin, Dublin, Ireland
Language, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? I lived on campus first semester which was very convenient and handy at first but there quite a few annoyances that made me choose to live off campus during the second semester.
Personal comments:
Good but overpriced. Much better accomodation can be found off-campus and alot cheaper. Very handy living in the dormitory at first as everything was organised there(i.e. physical examination, visa procedures, registration etc) which was amazing at first. However, there is no living area or general area where students could hang out. Only two kitchens per floor (each floor has 34 rooms) and two refrigerators(though mini fridges could be rented). Rooms have own bathroom and are well maintained. Though very convenient, I would recommend living off campus. Warning to those who want to live on campus - go for room numbers that are even in the end (i.e. 1828) as these rooms face the south side and have a much better view, are alot quieter and warmer in the winter than northside rooms (i.e. 1829) Tonghe Apartments, KIC Village (brand new!) and Rainbow city seem very popular choices. Living in an apartment is generally alot cheaper than living on campus. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
STUDENT LIFE

Marketing and Sales Management, University Agreement
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Activities: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Nightlife, Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Personal comments:
We often go go Nanjingxi street, a lof of cafe, bar, resturants. To have lunch, the favourit must be Element Fresh. If you want to see all of Shanghai, you can go to the 87 floor of Jin Mao, great resturant there as well. We usually to to western resturants, but there are a few good chinese as well.

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
The joint MBA courses provided by both Fudan University and University of HongKong is a nice program with good quality. The content of courses contain both theory and real cases study.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
Shanghai is an international city, but most of courses in university are in Chinese, it is quite hard for foreign exchange students to choose the suitable courses. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Local language was: Different than language of instruction.
Was learning English 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 English?
My level before: At ease in most situations My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) How much did you improve your local language?
My level before: Basic phrases My level after: At ease in most situations Personal comments:
At Fudan University the language of instruction was English, so there wasn't any problem with that. However, with my Chinese it was hard to pass all the administrative stuff (police...). In China nearly anybody can speak English or another "not Asian language". This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

The accessibility of student needs
Main source of funding:
Family Other sources of funding:
None Work opportunities:
It was not legal for me to work Personal spending habits:
Its cheaper here. Though SH is one of the most expensive cities in China.. be warned! Food, Travel, Nightlife, Overall, Telephone, Housing: was less expensive than at home.
Personal comments:
We got offered a UC grand during our second semester from Fudan which was nice. Basic money saving principles apply as in the western world.. even though it may seem cheaper to dine out here, it is cheaper to cook yourself. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Important to choosing this university...
I wish I had known...
It is my home country, but it is still my first time to visit Shanghai and Fudan University. My real purpose is to learn the Chinese market and get some valueable working experience in there. In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
During my experience abroad, I ...
Personal recommendation:
Fudan University is the top university in China, even the best one in Shanghai. The MBA courses in there are teached in Enghish with the good quality. The university as a small society also has a plenty of student associations and activities such as sports, dancing, social clubs. The campus and social life in there are interesting. FINAL COMMENTS
Besides the study life, the traveling in China must be a fantastic plan as you dream for. The international office in university is really helpful place where you can get any traveling information. China is a big country with a long history, she is waiting for you and hopes you are enjoying you life in there. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
