HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? The School offers Half room and Board, which I would have liked better because I they have full kitchens that the students can cook with.
Personal comments:
Only real problem with the housing was the Maid. She was noisy and disruptive at times. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Describe host city: Students interact with the local community without much university involvement
Nightlife, Travel: Takes place mostly outside the university/student environment Activities: Takes place both within and outside of the university/student environment Personal comments:
There is a large bar located near the school, which is very friendly and not expensive. Ricordos is the name of the bar. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
