HOUSING
by Ulf, Stockholm School of Economics, Stockholm, Sweden
Financial Management, University Agreement
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? Campus far from city. More interesting and engrossing to live off-campus.
Personal comments:
Campus good way to get to know local students. Boring campus, nothing to do in the local suburbs. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
STUDENT LIFE

Personal social experience
Describe host city: Students equally interact with the local and student community
Activities, Nightlife, Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Personal comments:
When I was in Taipei you had to go to TU and the (new) Roxy to hang out but other places, Brown Sugar, are nice too. Because these are basically foreigner ghettos though, don't expect to become friendly with local population (unless you're picking up women).

ACADEMIC

My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
If you want to get into grad school in Taiwan, get a letter from your home school saying your chinese is excellent and you don't need to take their (godawful) proficiency test--it's designed to stump you and even the Japanese and Koreans. If you bomb it you'll have to take mandarin courses along with your regular coursework.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
Being an American at a Taiwanese college is a lonely business--make friends w/locals or go braindead! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
