HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: student residence
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? To feel like a real resident of this country
Personal comments:
The student residence where I was living was well located (in the city and near the university) and full of exchange students from all around the world. It was really friendly. 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
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:
My favourite night spot was a pub a bit alternative called Alibi. And there is also a cinema theatre very friendly called Cafe Biografen. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
ACADEMIC
My academic experiences
Course recommendations:
There are two weeks at the beginning of the semester during which it is possible to go to every courses in order to choose the ones we will follow after. It is really important to go to EVERY courses during those weeks to make one own opinion about the class. Indeed subjects can appear interesting but they are not really in reality and vice versa.
My opinion of the university assessment
Personal comments:
It would be maybe a good idea to umplicate more the students thanks to projects throughout the course. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

OVERALL
Important to choosing this university...
I wish I had known...
Odense is more a village than a city and sometimes it was a bit boring... but luckily, Copenhagen was not that far... In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
