HOUSING
by Julie, Université de Savoie, Chambéry, France
Language, University Agreement
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? To be more independent and do not have to register any friends that I invite at the entrance gate
Personal comments:
British campus are much better than the French ones. They offers kind of houses or appartments that you share with students from many nationalities (for my part i had asked for British girls). Rooms are big enough and you can even have a bathroom in your bedroom. You share the lounge/kitchen with your flatmates so that you can talk and share good moments with them.

STUDENT LIFE

Personal social experience
Describe host city: Student life dominates the city
Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities, Nightlife: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
the city centre is full of discos and pubs, for every kind of taste!my favourite cafe was "the egg", a lovely veg bistro with a 'bohèmien' atmosphere. you cannot miss the Wed nights at Medication and concerts at the Cavern! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
What I really appreciated was the availability teachers have for students. Lessons are given in small groups and you are not just a student, teachers know your name. This does not happen frequently in France.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
It seemed easier than the lessons given in France. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

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: Everyday knowledge (shopping, directions, etc.) Personal comments:
When I first arrive in Liverpool, it was dificult for me to understand the people, because they speak a dialect and their accent is quite strong.In the residence, I was sharing a flat with three British guys, from different places, (different accents, slang...).They used to speak very quickly as well, and I could understand anything. But finally, It was allright.I had no problems with the lecturers This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
EXPENSES
by Julie, Université de Savoie, Chambéry, France
Language, University Agreement
The accessibility of student needs
Main source of funding:
Family Other sources of funding:
An ERASMUS grant Regional grant Work opportunities:
I didn't explore any work options Personal spending habits:
The city of my host country at that time was Aix-en-Provence which is very expensive so housing did not change a lot. About nightlife, I do not drink too much which made me save a bit of money. Food, Telephone: was more expensive than at home. Travel, Nightlife, Overall, Housing: was the same price as at home.
Personal comments:
Grants help quite much. But it is also easy for students to find a job in England in pubs, clubs etc. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
OVERALL
by Julie, Université de Savoie, Chambéry, France
Language, University Agreement
Important to choosing this university...
I wish I had known...
I think it was better to experiment new things once there. In my opinion:
Everybody loved it, you will too!
During my experience abroad, I ...
Personal recommendation:
Do not know what to say FINAL COMMENTS
- Bus is cheap to go and visit the places around or even to go to London for a weekend - University offers many trips or visits very cheap..it is also a good way to meet new people - Liverpool is closed to Ireland so take the opportunity to go there - If you need advice, ask at the university administration or to the teacher in charge of your exchange programme, they are always ready to help - The last but not the least, spend most of your time with English-speaking people and not only people from your country or you will not improve your language skills at all...in that case it is better to stay at home !
