Type of housing: Apartment/House

If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? living on campus gives the students an opportunity to meet students from all around the world ,it is also the a good way to learn about the place from the students that have been in the same situation as you are (new country ,new university, etc.)
Personal comments:
average concerning cost and facilities,on the other hand university residence staff is always there to help students meet their needs ,specialy during first semester
