HOUSING
by anna, Università di Bologna, Bologna, Italy
Management Science, Erasmus
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? I would choose the same, cause the Campus gives you the possibility to know other students, and it is convenient.
Personal comments:
The Residence where I used to live, was "Le Totem", it was the official residence of my Management School in France. Liveing there, gave me the possibility to know, since I arrived, a lot of students, coming from all over the world. I was fun sharing our experiences and sometimes our homesickness...which is important when you are living abroad. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
Try to socialize with french students, in order to figure out the real purpose of the course. French Business Schools normally give students the possibility to interact with the Enterprises Environment, participating to job meeting and forums. An internship after the studies is recomended.

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: French
Was learning French a key decision factor?
No, it wasn't. How much did you improve your French?
My level before: At ease in most situations My level after: No problems in any areas (including slang) Personal comments:
I have studied french language for a long time, so that my french level was prestty good. But once in France, I have experienced the local french slang, which is sometimes necessary to understand the environment. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

EXPENSES

Business Studies, Erasmus
The accessibility of student needs
Main source of funding:
Personal savings Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant Work opportunities:
I didn't want/need to work Personal spending habits:
In the Netherlands I live with my parents and so most cost are for free! But also the telephone was higher due to calling home often, travel because I had more opportunity to travel and nightlife simply because you go out more often! Food, Travel, Nightlife, Overall, Telephone: was more expensive than at home. Housing: was the same price as at home.
Personal comments:
Just make sure that you arrange everything one week before classes start. Especially CAF!! and also take a french native speaker with you to banks etc. it makes it much easier and a lot of french students are more than willing to help you!

Personal recommendation:
ICN should try to involve more the students of Master levels in the other activities of the university FINAL COMMENTS
I should recommend everyone to have a experience abroad because it helps to become more independent and increases our practical competences. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
