HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? to share it with who I want, to be free more than in a flat or a residence
Personal comments:
The International Office, society and all the lectures were helpful, so nice, always very comprehensive... an erasmus year without any problems only great thinks to keep on memory!! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

STUDENT LIFE
Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students interact with the local community without much university involvement
Travel: Takes place mostly within the university/student environment Nightlife: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
humm... So lots of it depends what you are looking for! On monday never miss the Clarence it is full of Irish and you will never see Sligo as cazy as it is> Do as you are Irish during the Rag Week: crazy week, no school only parties everywher,everytime! Then to go out from thusday to Sunday night : The Envy or Toffs to go out, The Shennanigans ( some bad guys in charge of security..) but it is free and you can danse as in a niteclub!!when sun or warm day come: Mc Huggs!!! Lots of Pub are really nice in Sligo and more Irish but these u must discover by yourself : just on tuesday, karaoke in The Stables, good fun guarantee!

Language difficulties
Language of instruction: English
Was learning English a key decision factor?
Yes, I wanted to improve my English How much did you improve your English?
My level before: Basic phrases My level after: At ease in most situations Personal comments:
Maybe the first weeks we thought we will never manage to understand...and surprised after it became a really easy thing, we didnt py more intention to it!!! Now we mix some englishb word with our own language: sooo strange!! but it s sometimes more quick and it is so pleasant to see that you can think directly in english now at th eend of the year!!
