Københavns Tekniske Skole review by Leonard

Review by Leonard, The Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen, United Kingdom
Architecture, Erasmus
HOUSING    
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
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? To integrate more with other students outwith univesity. Think it is important when studying abroad to meet as many people as possible to take adavantage of the different culture.
Personal comments:
In Denmark the costs are very high but are easy to accept. 12 rooms shared a kitchen and a communal area which was great for integrating with other international students. I would have liked to met more Danish people by living with them.
