HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? The Residence was quite far from the University and the Center of the City, plus the connections by bus or other public transport was very bad.
Personal comments:
The University is perfect for Exchange students because there are so many facilities and the integration with home students is very easy. Althoug the learning abilities used in class are differnet from my home University and very usfull. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
